She is, indeed, pretty as a picture. When ever I try and take a 'selfie' I look as if I am on a Most Wanted list.

 

One wonders what the background might be that demanded a self-portrait. I bet the picture wasn't as good as this one.

 

It is a great theme. I hope, Adam, you will be moved to continue with your documentation of the Selfie Nation.

Many thanks, Beresford and Jesus.  I think a thread of "selfie nation" is a great idea!!  So I invite everyone to share their photos!!  I'll start to try to get things going...

Nice moment and nice connexion between her and the picture in the truck both have the same expression  ;)

 

Once again Great shot.

Great idea for a thread, Adam, and a couple of killer shots to kick off with. Mind you, I think the ubiquitous selfies are definitely not just confined to ONE nation.

 

Here's one of mine that I hope will fit in with the theme:

Liberty Island Ferry, 2016

 

These are awesome, and total classics Phil. The Tri-X is sublime - great blacks and contrast.

Erl, if I might make a light remark: You go against the grain in more than one sense. I find this photograph really holds my attention as I try to work out the details.

Yes, but no, it goes WITH the grain! :rolleyes:

A combination of accidents produced the result, which, while not my usual style, I am tempted to pursue it a bit further.

Details: Leica R8 with Summilux 80/1.4 lens.

Film: Ilford HP5+ exp @ 800iso and developed (accidentally) with 50ml of Rodinal instead of 5ml. Even the sprocket hole went black!!!

Scanning dense neg took forever.

50ml of Rodinal! That's hardcore.

 

I'm always delighted to find I am not the only person to experiment involuntarily. I like the result.

Erl - I also like the results.   We should all experiment more!
