1. You never will know when you get a good photograph or not until you shoot it. Thus, keep taking risks in street photography by keep clicking, by keep shooting, by keep 'working the scene' from different angles, perspectives, and distances. Take a step forward, backwards, to the left, to the right.

2. Don't "chimp" while shooting street photography (which means don't keep reviewing your photos on the back of your LCD screen while you're shooting). This will disrupt your flow of shooting. Better to keep shooting, then when you go home, review your photos.

3. You can keep shooting and clicking and working the scene, and when people notice you taking their photograph, you can say "Hello!" and "Thank you!" afterwards, smile, and wave at them, and just keep moving!
