IMO, if we shoot street photography and wanted to shoot those beggar,

Unless you aim is to shoot all beggar in KL as a body of work.  Or unless the pics are very strong and comes with a message. or even if you shot in their face.

Else, we should refrain from posting them. We may shot, but posting them, a bit meh.

Street photography is not about shooting subject on the street, (although beggar kind of always on the street), its about shooting the moment which happened on the street.

If someone pay money to the beggar and you manage to snap that, its at least conveying some message.

just my 2 cents. Coz, im a bit beh tahan with all those Beggar picture posted

"The marvels of daily life are exciting; no movie director can arrange the unexpected that you find in the street." – Robert Doisneau

Erm, but I am trying to convey a different message from people giving money.

Personally I think people not giving money is also a message? Some people don't even give them a look, continue with their own thing, some give them a look for a sec, but then later continue with their life.

Depends on how you shot it i guess. If the beggar gaze at you then its not so bad, or some cheerful expression at least it form a lasting moment.

Sure not giving money is a message, but just a matter how you deliver it.

If the beggar with palms open, with very sad expression and gazing at you, while background manage to suggest ppl walking by, then it should be the moment you suggest, but if just simply snapshot of beggar. a bit meh
