Where To Put......

[Paul Cheeseman]

Any street type shots, is there a preferred forum to put the street stuff, as I can't see a street or documentary forum.

I guess mostly they tend to end up in General although People and Portraits would work quite often too. I guess it comes down to what is the dominant component. Maybe we need a Street category (what do you think @Hamish Gill?).

Thank you Pete, I felt I was too new to suggest such a thing so soon.

May be a good idea though.

I tend to use General or People and when is Street really Street? Dave does some in colour and mine sometimes come from the old Leica. Perhaps we need an Antique category as well...

Come on Lesley there plenty of life… Oh I see, for pictures taken with old cameras!

I would fit right into that category Lesley.

Ive always thought "people & portraits" as being ideal for street

If that's the end of the matter, then so be it.
Though I must admit, its not somewhere I would expect to find street photography.
Street tends to be given its own space these days and would also encompass 'street portrait', 'social & documentary' & even 'environmental' as well as the usual broad brush that is 'street'.

I like to think of it is....

"Documentary primarily candid urban behavioural contextual people photography primarily but not exclusively on streets "

 

[Paul Cheeseman]

That will do but it doesn't have to include people.
