The other component of photographs comes from the golden ball, trading and selling photographic equipment he owned Don Joaquin Fat, one of whose sons Joseph, the more he was president of Helios, had a photographic studio and Aurelio Fat Sancho eventually became one of the largest English photographers of the first half of the twentieth century. His interest in understanding photographic technique takes from a child to practice the art of Daguerre, published in 1907 his first picture in the magazine Black and White in Madrid with 14. During the French Hispano Zaragoza Expo 1908, practiced Tick picture with the camera, leaving a document of the events of that event. And not until 1910 that he published his first two shots in the Heraldo de Aragón, No. 4851, on June 13, 1910, in which the caption reads:
Flower Show Hospice in the shelter of Zaragoza and the other mayors Borja, Agon and Bulbuente in the yard Diputación Provincial de Zaragoza.
These two pictures are the beginning of an ongoing collaboration with the Herald, becoming the first photographer for the newspaper that goes out to photograph its people and to spread its activities in Aragon and Spain, through the ABC and Black and White, ie the first photographer and journalist born in Zaragoza, who photographed the streets, no street in the city, is a curious ... ...

The caption says the following legend: Costa's casket at the time of being deposited in the tomb of Torrero Cemetery. Photograph obtained with light magnesium last night for the Heraldo de Aragón by Mr. Fat. This means he was using the latest photographic technology at the service of photojournalism, advanced all the time. Then in 1917 he graduated as a doctor and stop being a reporter, goes to Madrid and Paris to specialize in dermatology and radiology, and returns to install its first consultation in 1921 at the Paseo de la Independencia, 22, pral. and then in 1927 in the Calle Joaquin Costa 3 pral.

Teresa and I wrote many articles in the Extraordinary del Pilar Goya text and photos which are then reproduced in color in articles for the Herald's new Sunday supplements now disappeared. All this collaboration of text and photographs of Goya culminated in a book entitled Goya on the road, which was distributed in installments with great success. It was sold in the Seville Expo in 1992 and was delivered to the Infanta Elena the day he gave the first prize in Fuendetodos Goya.
