Hmm, pictures of people you don't know and didn't pose doing what they are doing. Seems this has been going on since glass plates. I think, just imho, the term "street photography" is a term thought up to make this style sound urban or "hip". I have a hard time, honestly, listening to any artist, be it a painter, writer, sketch artist, what have you, using the words "street" or "urban" and taking them seriously. I know it's a prejudice, but it usually sounds like someone, and we've all seen them, trying to make their mediocre art seem important.
I'm probably wrong, but the prejudice sticks...I'll try and open my mind I suppose.
