At the pier on a Sunday afternoon

At the pier

Sometimes I wonder, what is street photography?  People are lamenting that street photography, for many, equals pictures of homeless people in black and white. And of course there are proponents of "do not take pictures of the homeless anymore......"
Does this picture belong to the genre of street photography?  What I'm trying to do here is to record the absurd scenery of a bunch of people gathering here at a loading dock trying to take pictures of reflections off the puddle of rainwater that had not yet dried up.  While I would not dismiss any legitimate activity which bring people out of their house and enjoy themselves, people are getting to ridiculous places to "take photographs".  Maybe in an over-crowed city like ours, we just need to do something different, which turns out to be different for the sake of being different, and as posting on Facebook and Instagram spread, the different thing becomes a not-so-different thing altogether. 
Here's another picture:

OK, why were you there?  I was walking the dog, and I always had my camera with me when I walk the dog.
