I don’t like to photograph people, I don’t feel comfortable doing it. I feel like I shouldn’t, it’s like I’m stealing something that doesn’t belong to me, locking it in my camera. Sometimes I have photographed someone on the street and then I have not been able to share that photo with anyone, even I usually delete them.
I always say that my conscience does not allow me to portray unknown people. And, the worst of all, I agree with it!!! Surely all this, comes because I don’t like to be around people much, I’m not too sociable, although I cover it up very well 😉
I don’t like being photographed either… what you don’t want for yourself, not for others!!! 😉
Today I’m going to make an effort and show you my less usual photos, the ones I don’t usually do, the different ones.

If I have to photograph people on the street, I always try to take them in the shadows, on their backs, away…
Sometimes, it’s easier with friends…
My friend Anabel is a story writer and we both love to read and be surrounded by writers…

Anabel with the writer Luis Borrás. In his book “Fotomatón” I had the honor to participate with a photography.
And of course, my friends photographers…
And finally, a pseudo-self portrait “My Other Self”

Love your self-portrait Ana, very clever! I do enjoy photographing people when I travel to add local personality but other than that I will usually stay away from it as well. The world has gone a bit crazy with selfies! That’s one thing you won’t EVER catch me doing!!
