Yes, you can post your photos as privacy laws are different in public areas (in US and most countries anyway).

HOWEVER, it is completely unethical to criticize an individual in a photo –>> libel cases are not that uncommon

You can certainly post the pictures on your blog. It is your "right" as the copyright owner of the shots to publish them. However, be very careful with the captions. If you put any captions which could be classed as libelous or defamatory then you can get done by the individuals for that.

If your shots are taken in the street you can post them. Its in a public place and ignore people who say you cant..street photography is a great part of photography and is done worldwide.

if the people are recognizable than you cannot post without their permission. you would have to get a model release. thats what my photography teacher told me when i was taking candid photos. if they were just a blur in the crowd it wouldnt be a problem.

it really shouldn't matter if you post the photos but it would matter if the people in the pics see your comments about them, especially if its bad. of course if they were random people there's small chance of them seeing your blog but that chance is always there and it would be better if you don't take that chance
