Very nice shot. It would be even nicer if you had been lower, and more to the left. That way we'd be at the level of the street people, seeing the way they see, and the guy making the donation would be coming toward you, into the photo. (Hey, I'm supposed to provide criticism, right?

I'm really interested in hearing your thoughts, and those of others, on how to deal with the possibility that people will change their behaviour if they are aware that they are being observed/photographed.......

If you are close, they will eventually notice you. Your demeanour amongst other things will determine how they react. The question is whether you intend to take more shots afterwards. If you do, you need to be ready to spend some time with them. It will be a while before they just get on with things and start behaving normally.
