How much sharpness count in street photography?

[Miti]

Hi TPF people



I love wandering through the city, Nuoro, Italy, and take pics of everything looks to me interesting. Now I saw his lady begging right outside the cathedral. Unfortunately I wasn't able to take e very sharp pic of her so I wonder how much is important sharpness in street photography?

It only matters to you the photographer.

When i'm shooting on the street i use hyper focus so sometimes they can be a bit soft but still nice

The graininess is more of an issue....

No issue to me i love grain and it was shot on Fomapan 400 and developed in Rodinal no plastic looking digital for me

LOL cool! I must say without looking at names I assumed this photo was by the OP.

the crooked building is more off putting to me than any softness it might have. straighten out the tilt and i think its fine.
