He tried to include himself within his images somehow and most the time he did this by including shadows or reflections of himself. Like this image for example, we can see his shadow on the back of the woman in front of him:
Here are some if my interpretations trying to use some of his techniques:
In this image, of another gum dispenser I am again incorporated in the image by a reflection but this time, it is only my hand, arm and the camera you can see as I wanted to get the sign "feed me gum" within the image as well.
For this image, you can see a shadow of me on the pole, but I have also incorporated the reflection of people outside in the glass door. This uses two of the techniques with Friedlander used.
This image is slightly blury this is because it is all a reflection from one of the mirrored windows outside college. As you can see i am again in the image by reflection, however you can't see my face, and this gives the image a question of identity, like Friedlander's did when they just included his shadow.
Finally in this image we can only see a reflection of the railing in the glasss pane, but it still looks effective.
