In this image waves meet love. Hmmm….can you call this a street photograph when it was taken at the beach? The question came up the in the comments of my previous post. While the question is valid, the answer is simple. Street photography isn’t defined by where it’s taken, but by what it captures. It’s about observing real, unscripted human moments in public spaces. A beach, just like a sidewalk, a subway, or a park, is a public stage where life unfolds naturally. Or as Shakespeare says “All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women, merely players” which is the motto of this blog.

Thanks for the definition for us non-streeters
I agree, it is street photography! Maybe you influenced me years ago, so I also think when catching people out and about doing their thing, it is street photography!
I love those types of candid photos of people. Nothing staged all natural, you get a feel for things looking ke that
Excellent photo, Marcus!
I’ve always stretched the notion of “street” to include human elements such as unoccupied chairs. It can get a bit tricky after that 🤭
