Self-portrait in the street is a pleasure, it makes you participate in the scene shamelessly like Velázquez and El Greco in their works ¨Las Meninas¨ and ¨El entierro del Conde de Orgaz¨, with two balls, or like Alfred Hitchcock in his films, without saying anything, but being aware of everything. You can do the same, go out in one of your photographs, take part in the scene, be the number one witness of the moment, take a self-portrait, like Velázquez, with two balls.

Then came many more, the idea was given to me by my mother when she asked me angrily when she saw my street photos that I was not in any of them.

My first self-portrait in the street

But there's the photographer, noticing all this.

Crowds in the metro

Filling the frame with points of interest in a single image seems simple.

Another of my favourite self-portraits

But I took the photo of myself

I saw a superstar

I had to capture the movement, to divide the frame into a square, to portray myself and the city. 10 minutes and challenge achieved

This portrait was a ten-minute challenge

She looked a little tired but soon returned to her duties.

The fruit lady resting on top of the empty fruit crates

Sometimes the glass has to be cleaned to see a little better.

Glass reflection

And the photographer reacted to his greeting in the same way, albeit in his clothes.

The girl who greeted the photographer

Surrounded by people, sea, buildings, and photographers.

This is Hong Kong

Photos, photos and .....

Photos

When you play with the reflections of the opaque glasses

ICC and the photographer

I have to admit that sometimes I like (or have liked to be)

Never the centre of attention

Although it says in other photos that it doesn't, I have to admit, I have always liked it.

Sometimes I like to be the centre of attention

And of course, the opening has been immediate, in fact, here I am

Self-Portrait, opening soon

Cameras don't kill, trust me

The man who was shot....by the camera

Better days will come

Moody day in Japan

She never came back in again

The lady who stepped out of the frame

The point is to try to photograph differently

The triptych, the movement and the photographer

His cigar, not the photographer

Obstruction to pedestrians

Locked up in Hong Kong (from my series)

Message seen in my village at the south of Madrid

Si no luchas estás muerto

In one of my Street Photograohy Workshops

Chiang Rai

For more information google Ying Yang

My first Ying Yang

...You'll understand why I was pretending

The lady and the man who went to sleep right behind the photographer pretending to sleep

Things, moments and points of interest everywhere.

Seoul's motley in Seoul

Although there are times when he sees nothing

The all-seeing eye

Good time to prepare a photo

There's a spider in my window

Everyone has their own little tricks, even they do.

Police officers who didn't notice being photographed because the photographer didn't show them the camera

Mostly because of the hairstyle we both wear.

The poster photographer who looked like me

The best thing about photography is to go unnoticed.

The boy who walked fast so as not to greet the photographer

Another one of those ten-minute challenges where I had to confuse the viewer, get geometric shapes and get in the picture. The reflections are thanks to bringing the mobile screen closer to the camera.

Reflections on the edge of the camera

And the photographer for posterity

The minibus driver

This is a phrase that has been said by many photographers, myself included.

All photographs are deceiving, mine are.

Everything needs time

The boy who didn't trust my shadow

The point is to keep your feet on the ground

Everything goes so fast

that's what it's like to be reflected in a mirror

A random self-portrait

I think I'll turn it off

I bought a remote-controlled car.
