The same question can be asked about landscape, portrait, travel photos, etc. Everything has pretty much already been done, no matter the genre. Despite Hollywood making 500+ feature films every year for the last 100 years, there are only 7 basic plots. So should we stop making movies?? For those who are critical of Street Photography seems pretty narrow minded. There is always a new angle, a new way of seeing, for Street Photography or whatever. sl - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
