Look at more examples of street photography. Especially when there is one subject. You are so close this is like a portrait. If you're going to say your doing "street" photography, your subject needs to have some time of interaction with the street/enviroment.

Here are some of my street photography:

I love close ups - that are candid on the street - however, I agree with your statement - here are couple more that are more in line of the interaction with the street enviroment.

The photo isn't bad, don't get me wrong. It's more of a "travel" photo. The kind people take to get a close look at the people that live in another place.

Relieving a bit of personal ignorance I checked Wikipedia.

Street photography is a type of documentary photography that features subjects in candid situations within public places such as streets, parks, beaches, malls, political conventions and other settings.

Street photography uses the techniques of straight photography in that it shows a pure vision of something, like holding up a mirror to society. Street photography often tends to be ironic and can be distanced from its subject matter, and often concentrates on a single human moment, caught at a decisive or poignant moment. On the other hand, much street photography takes the opposite approach and provides a very literal and extremely personal rendering of the subject matter, giving the audience a more visceral experience of walks of life they might only be passingly familiar with. In the 20th century, street photographers have provided an exemplary and detailed record of street culture in Europe and North America, and elsewhere to a somewhat lesser extent.
