Jaded:
Not sure we have a thread that majors on Street.

Here’s an interesting video about one photographer

Interesting, while there's quite something to learn from his stuff, I come away wondering if I like it, and if I do like it, where I would like it for. Saying it seems to me to be the sort of image that would be chosen by an architect is either compliment or criticism, for the life of me I don't know which, so it probably doesn't matter.
 
I have a work colleague who, it turns out, is quite good at street photography https://www.waynecrichlowphotography.com/ , I like his work as well if not better.

Ham:
Thinking about street stuff made me go back and have a browse through some of my own, which is entirely different style, and I thought I'd add a forum-relevant example

mike:
great video.  I really like the guys work because it forces you to use your imagination and doesnt show peoples faces too often. The kind of 'ooh, pretty girl' or 'ooh, homeless person' type of street photography does nothing for me, where a good photo seems to be one where it's in focus (normally with a >>50mm lens)

this kind of thing is awesome though: http://www.alanburles.com/-smile-.html

Ham:
I like those Alan Buries ones, for me street photography should contain or hint at a story as much as an image, the Joshua Jackson stuff is all about the image, which is why I think I have some antipathy towards it, although I would be very pleased to have been responsible for anything as good as that.
