So what are your thoughts about using telephoto lenses in street photography? Personally I think these focal lengths are suiting my abstract style of photography a lot better than the 35mm did. Like most things within anyone's photography journey, your approach, tools, and inspiration you have will evolve as you grow. What might be your favorite focal length or favorite camera right now won't necessarily be the same one year, two years, or even the same next month. Restricting yourself in photography can have it's advantages since it challenges you, but don't let that limitation get in the way of you getting the kind of photos you want to take!
