Many of these count as street photography rather than candid. Candid is when the subject is aware that you are there but does not pose for you but rather behave naturally giving a better insight into their nature. Street is when you photograph strangers often without them being aware you are there.

Candid is essentially street photography for beginners

By this definition, I reckon street photography is candid photography for beginners! It's harder to take a good photo of someone when they know you're doing it than it is when they don't!

How about less analyzing and more posting photos. No one cares. Photos of people not posing are candida. It's that simple. Now go take some photos.

Nice one Shaylou!

Thanks. I think I picked it because it is the most recent. I have a ton of street shots on my flickr page.

That depends on the person you are shooting. I have shot models that were way easier to shot than non pros.

Believe it or not, the smile and pose weren't intentional haha. He just happened to look like this.
