Where you live plays a part in it, but it's more likely that you're just doing it wrong, or starting off your conversation badly. I always make sure I blend in a compliment when I explain why I took the photograph. Go out without a camera and try to make chit-chat with people, try to start conversations with complete strangers. Once you get used to it, just do the same, but with a camera.
>>1254730That's one of the worst ideas I've ever heard. And I doubt it'll work, because that makes it even more dodgy, as people don't want their photo to end up in newspapers.

>>1254677This guy's a social retard, I'm surprised he isn't sued yet, and if he is, by god I hope he gets what's coming for him. He just pushes and yells at people, and pretty much from everything I've seen in various vids he's always the one starting it, people comment on the fact that he's fucking harassing people, and then he gets mad and pushes them away, screaming he has all the right and it's a public street, etcetera. His old work was good, but all his American street work is mediocre and gimmicky.
