I have told you about this before! "don't stand so close to me".

            Invading personal space can create a sense of unease and insecurity. When someone invades another person's personal space, it can be seen as an aggressive or intrusive act. This can lead to feelings of vulnerability, defensiveness, and a breakdown in trust between individuals. It's important to remember that everyone deserves to feel safe and secure in their own personal bubble, and they may be prepared to defend it violently.

Mine personally is about an arms length.

Remember the use of a long lens can physically put you outside your subjects normal personal space but the long lens seems to magnify their personal boundary as well as the image, especially when working in the street.

There is no easy solution, a short wide lens is less intrusive but can often put you within arms reach of the subject. Best to judge the situation before you take the shot.
