Sorry, Paul Capa did not mean to fill the frame using long lenses. getting in close gives more intimate results. You seem to like a more "voyeuristic" approach to photography - that's fine for you. Getting close does not mean getting in someone's face - depending on what you mean by that. your

I rarely comment on PAW and PESO photos. The PDML is difficult to keep up with and the commentary is difficult to sort. I'm not prepared to stop and view and comment on every picture that comes thru. I much prefer to put all the comments for the PUG aside and review the gallery when I have time

I could be wrong, but I always took Capa's comments to mean "fill the frame," rather than "get in someone's face." I've had good luck with both long and short lenses on the street. It depends on whether one wants to catch their subjects unaware or record the reaction to the camera and intrusion
