The most basic definition of street photography is "capturing life in public areas."  This is a type of photography that is uncomfortable for many people, myself included.  Though I do enjoy people watching, especially in airports, taking pictures of strangers feels too intrusive for this introvert.  That said, I find much beauty in observing the connections that people make and the interactions that they have with their surroundings.  

To address my own reservations with engaging in street photography, I always photograph strangers from behind or in silhouette (or both).

This week will be challenging for me but I'm willing to push myself out of my comfort zone a little.  I hope you'll join me.
