mentalfloss.com — For some reason when I get out my camera, I take pictures of strangers. Strangers don’t pose. They do funny things without realizing they’re being watched. And when you get the pictures back, they’re never around to complain about how they look. What I'm doing is called street photography.

As others have stated, public space is exactly that. Additionally, anyone in an urban area is photographed by surveillance cameras multiple times every day. I don't recall signing a model release this morning as I was imaged at the BART station or at Starbucks! and in the case of surveillance there is a clear profit (equipment vendors, software vendors, security consultants, etc.) far more money involved than most photographers will ever see.

very true! As often as not people use the "model release' as an excuse for lacking the convictions to take the pictures they want to take.

The voyeur in me did a happy dance when I read the title, but I was kind of disappointed.

Right, Cartier-Bresson is an excellent person to show in this case.
