Thanks so much, Alex. The (possibly quixotic) plan is to do this every year. I'm looking for different topics and angles for the end of the year, so if you think of any, let me know. I'm glad you enjoyed it! :)
Thanks, Mark. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I wanted it to be comprehensive. I would like next one, written at the end of this year, to have additional/different topics, so if you have any suggestions, let me know. :)
A fascinating in-depth post Neil. Lots to think about and explore. Thank you very much for recommending my Substack too - it was a surprise and honour to be mentioned.
Thanks, Andrew. You've been a big part of my Substack journey so far, so I did want to mention you in this 1st one. I'm glad you enjoyed it, I wanted it to be comprehensive. I would like the next one, written at the end of this year, to have additional/different topics, so if you have any suggestions, let me know. :)
This was long but I enjoyed reading it. I especially loved how you described the privacy and ethical issues surrounding street photography and I agree that at the end of the day, it all comes down to each person setting his own boundaries on what/whether/when to photograph.
Thanks Ash. Much appreciated. I'm very happy you enjoyed it. Yeah, the privacy and ethical issues have become more important to me as I've gotten older. I would like the next SoSP, written at the end of this year, to have additional/different topics, so if you have any suggestions, let me know. :)
For very long, yet compelling articles I often skim first and reread later after developing a few thoughts of my own. I intend to look up the sources cited. I was pleased to know and appreciate some already, especially ‘Tender Photo’. Though not a street photographer, per se, I appreciate the effort and organization of this writing.
Thanks Jimmie. Much appreciated. I hope you get a lot from the other links and sources in the article. Thanks so much for reading it through despite its verbosity. :)
It feels odd to not even mention Flickr. And UP is effectively what in-Public was before Turpin threw everyone out, which also seems significant. But otherwise, some good points made.
A sensible ,unbiased , interesting commentator of "Street" is a refreshing discovery, unicorns are real !
Thanks so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Very nice article, thank you
Thoroughly enjoyed this - thanks!
Thanks, Bryan. Much appreciated. I'm happy you enjoyed it. :)
What a great post, Neil! Thank you. It needs to be read and re-read.

A hugely generous and thorough look. Thank you for sharing this wisely and widely. So much to unpack. You have the makings of a book.

Likewise, after fleeing X you have helped make Substack feel like a welcoming new home. I'll have a think about some topics.

I would argue the article was long enough ;) Thanks for reading, and I appreciate the comment.
