    Definitely interesting. That's a question I always ask (to others and myself) regarding the few pictures I occasionally take. Sometimes when I see a peculiar person, such as an eccentric old woman, or even someone with a weird appearance, which I'd like to photograph, I start asking myself "Why do I want to take this picture? Is it because the person is weird? Am I making fun of him/her in the deep of my soul?". Then I feel I need a strong and pondered motivation about WHY I do what I do. Being conscious and aware of the REASON why you are taking pictures (or shooting video) is the base to transmit your motivation to the subject you want to shoot.

    Any point in this comment? As 98% of street photos are made not to make money.

    What about B&H advertising ? 98% of street photos are made not to make money, are you sure about it Vitaliy ?

    I really do not care, focus on value.

    I am not absolutely sure, may be 99%.

    So for you only 1/2% around the world make business ? actually is more than that, really more... Street photography mean a lot of scene (press/media and co)...

    Also i'm not going to focus on a video that add advertising, i will never take it seriously... this is a blabla video that many already did before, so it is not new...

    You want to talk/shoot stranger, think about humanity first... they are not stranger, they are human, call it a human a stranger, it is not a good start.

    You are prohibited to post in this topic and you add zero value and just continue complains.
