Photo opportunities tend to spring up for me when I least expect it. However one thing I often look out for is people having a break. Time off from the daily grind relaxes people and I find them more approachable to allowing me make a photograph of them.

Here is an example. The guy was taking some time and browsing on his phone oblivious to the world and the fact that he had been chosen to feature in a street photo. I particularly like this one as the reflections in the door add dept to the shot. Usually I like to avoid my own reflection but in this case I have not cropped it out.

 

This guy really saw me coming and I still got a useable shot
