OK, well you've set up some sort of expectation by referring to street photography. If the people are simply compositional elements then it doesn't really work for me because I don't get a strong sense of geometry from the pictures or from the arrangement of the people within them. Harald Mante is good for this approach to photography - well worth hunting down and reading his books.
