Technically, these probably are not in the realm of street photography. However, I do have street photography (SP) scenes that I intend to post shortly.
Earlier this year I got interested in this genre of photography but couldn't find a good web site dedicated to SP. Am really happy that we now have this site on UGG and many thanks to those who got this site established!
Thinking that my Sony A6000 with it 16-50 pancake style lens will work well for candid takes. This series was taken with the A6000 and 35mm f/1.8 lens.
Please feel free to offer suggestions or criticize as I start posting here. I know there are too many crowd shots and was trying to capture the atmosphere of the season!

You've captured a feel for the season's crowd. I especially like #6, which certainly qualifies as "street."
One suggestion I'd make is to tighten your cropping. This will help to define and emphasize a center of interest for the photos, and will get rid of items that detract or don't contribute much. Some suggestions: #2--Crop just to the right of the girl's white hat. This will emphasize the grouping around the fireplace. #3--On the left, crop between the two girls' heads in the background. On the right, between the red jacket and the yellow sweater. #4--On the left, just to the right of the boy's head. #5--Just to the left of the orange backpack. #6--Don't touch it. It's great as it is. #7--Just to the right of the man. This will get rid of most of that red coat. #8--Sorry, it lacks a center of interest. #9--Could take a little off both sides, or not. #10--On the right, remove about half of the space between the girl and the edge of the photo. This will put her closer to the "magic" 1/3 line.
Anyhow, just my thoughts on the photos. Keep on contributing.
