Thanks texkam.

Wow.. That is sad. A very different case here in Singapore. People here are so used to seeing people lugging their cameras around that it became a part of their daily lives already, plus I think people here are too caught up with their own issues that they tend to ignore everything around them.

Although, I had my own close calls doing street here as well. I had a big burly man kick me in the shin. Had 2 guys chasing me, and eventually losing them in the crowd. Had people laugh at me and call me names (that happened while I'm lying on my stomach lolz.), but that's about it.

In my country of origin, which is The Philippines, I almost got mugged and stabbed twice, and haven't even started shooting yet! So street is definitely a no-no when you're there, unless you're in a group, which I'm not very comfortable doing as I tend to camp in one area for hours and I assume that is not the style of most street photographers I know over there.

So yea. To sum it all up, street photography, IMHO, is the most perilous genré of photography in existence. I think different scenarios require different approaches, but one thing is to be applied as a universal rule. Discreetness. Prefect this and you will be salvaged.
