Hi Luis,
Very interesting and  like the others I'm going with #1. There are two 
pictures in this series.

The one picture missing?..... A shot in the mirror as difficult as that may 
be, but that is a picture that locks the series to-gether. I kept opening 
the pictures and each time I expected to see the mirror.

This might have been a very tough angle but it would've given you "his view" 
of his face. I realize this is on the street and you probably took these 
without bothering to interrupt his make-up session. It isn't like he didn't 
know you were taking his picture but I'd have walked over and tried to 
position myself over top of or to the side of him some how and shot down 
into the mirror.

Or if nothing else ask him to hold it up so you could shoot it.

But something in the mirror would've made this an extremely interesting 
series, even if it were 2 photographs.
