Street photography, often known as candid photography, is photography that captures unmediated accidental meetings and random incidents[1] in public areas for the sake of art or research. Although there is a distinction between street and candid photography, it is usually slight, with most street photography being candid in nature and some candid photography falling into the category of street photography. The existence of a street or even the urban area is not required for street photography. Though individuals are frequently featured prominently, street photography can also be of an object or place that portrays a distinct human character in imitation or aesthetic.

STREET PHOTOGRAPHY

This image depicts a boy patiently waiting for passengers to board a boat, which will depart for the other island. This photograph was taken at the Lahad Datu jetty, where boats and ships were anchored. Why did I photograph the kids?, because the ripples on his face and the way he sat were quite interesting to me, and there were some empty boats next to him
