The order of chaos

Street photography responds to a different urgency from all the rest of photography.

Back at home. Mexico City, 2022. Alex Coghe

The world of reflections captured me a long time ago. As a photographer I am delighted by how the double, triple perception receives so many messages and how the gaze gets lost inside the frame, always finding new details.

When I take this type of photographs I always consider the scene carefully, it is a completely different way of thinking than a normal scene. There are some lighting conditions that must be considered and certainly the position of the camera, the way we frame it becomes fundamental. it is quite the opposite of what many think: it is absolutely not causal even if you will encounter serendipity when the result is over.
