Thanx once again. I'm using the 17-40 that time, and this shot is again cropped. I should be using a tele, but only brought my 17-40 at that time.

Don't use a tele!

in street shoot...never use a tele...i use a 45mm for all my street shots.

What is the reason guys? I thought we can get very good portraiture with teles?

hi virgo..

perhaps you could try an even tighter crop so that only the man and his dog fill the frame?



street shots are normally shot with at wide - normal focal lengths, but there's no law to say that you can't use teles for street shots. try it out, and if it works then you've got a good shot. rules are meant to be broken once in a while

If you followed the link I gave in my above post, the article will tell you why you shouldn't use a tele.
