I guess you didn't see my message up there before I uploaded photos. I didn't look into my viewfinder when I snapped these and I was using Aperture Priority mode which the camera decides for me the shutter speed. I was already using f/2.8, the biggest aperture that my lens can go to.

Sorry, just read it on prev page.

Use manual mode.
f2.8 is big enough for that situation. With that f, you can increase you shutter speed. 250, 500.
Your sensor is big enough to capture the light.
Shutter speed is the main important aspect in street photography.

Composition. pre visualize before taking pictures. I know you shoot not looking at your VF. But please visualize in your mind how the sensor captures your subject.

Cut a paper and make a photo frame with the size of your camera sensor(. Bring it out often. See the world through it. It helps you.
