Do you do this??? Selfie. It means taking a picture of yourself with your own camera on your own hand. A lot of people do this nowadays especially with the smartphone now that has dual camera. But I am not really fond of this as I am not a photogenic person. lol

I do take a selfie also sometimes when i thought of having it while alone in our bedroom . But as always , i don't like my picture because it seems my smartphone does not produce beautiful selfies .

I do take selfies, but I hate them afterward. I end up deleting them, until I decide to either keep one or just forget it entirely. I am not photogenic at all When others take my picture,it seems to turn out pretty good, but when I take my own picture, ugh, it looks awful and gross.

@rakski I don't have very good looks, so anytime I try to take my own picture, it never comes out like I want it to. Oh well, selfies are out of the question for me.

Today it seems the youngs tend to take photos for themselves more often. As to me, I am not interested in it

I am not vain enough to take photos of myself. I love photography but the selfie obsession is a big set-back on that

@rakski that is a bit different though always handy if someone is free to take the photos for you all too.

I am not going to lie and say I have never done it because I have, but I am like you I do not like taking pictures so you will not find to many of me around. Then if I take it and hate it ill delete it, and I rarely post it online anywhere. Funny you write this now tho. I was in the store today and I saw a "Selfie Stand" .... yes it holds your phone better or something so you can take a selfie easier...I laughed it off honestly but I am sure someone has purchases it Lol

@rakski Yes, I was shocked to see it in the store honestly but I know they will invent anything that helps someone earn a little extra money along the way Selfies have became such a big thing in todays day and age. I think it is funny they went so far as to invent this but I am sure one day it will make it that far to your country as well. Give it time

I'm not too fond of selfies. I take a "wefie" with my kids or family members sometimes but I never upload those pictures for public viewing.

I could say this is stale news This has been there for months now but I just do not like the idea specially taking pictures of those who you are not so friendly with clinging together. Alone is fine may be but not in a group.

Yes I do. I'm not photogenic either, but I think selfies make me look slightly better. Plus I can always delete them if I'm taking them myself. I'm not addicted to taking selfies, but I prefer them to regular pictures.

I do not like selfies so much and I am also not photogenic, so I stay away.
