No Selfies For Me

I am not fond of selfies because of being a camera-shy person. I do not do what others do in the public. It is not my persona to take photos of myself. But, I only did this when I was in Tajikistan. Why? It is because I am a solo in the medical mission. I want to capture all the moments when being there before. Are you into selfies in public?

I can understand that matter. I am sure selfie can be fun with someone even without wearing makeup. Can you go out without wearing it?

@amitkokiladitya It is fine to be in this way because we do not have 'me time.'

Have a great Monday to you, too. Well, taking photos of something new in the public is fine for me.

@Shavkat I am not a real selfie person. I have done them if no one else is around and wanted or needed the picture taken.

I also feel shy doing it in the public. Perhaps if I am with someone, it will not be a problem.

When I was in university days, I do love taking photos. But still, it was seldom to have selfies. Perhaps if I travel alone again, I might indulge myself in this idea.

I had a friend who requested do not put me on camera, this was before camera's were cool. What happened is my homie was smashed but just having fun started dancing around and everyone started recording it so it was funny. I even jumped in watch this and we were just laughing and go to sit back down, no, shine that thing somewhere else I do not want to be recorded, back when camcorders were a thing. He been to prison and all that so understood I was like dude respect the mans wishes. Why is he he being party pooper, he is not and do not throw that you all know his story. It started to go sideways after that. lol

I always laugh about seeing my old selfie photos in Tajikistan. There were times that I cannot refuse not to take photos of myself at that time.

With such a situation, I will do the same thing. I agree that they do not mind me when having selfies with mother nature and the like.

Nope. I believe that no high resolution camera can ever replace the sights seen with human eye. The images captured in a camera gets stored in it but the images captured with your eye is protected in your heart.

I seldom make a selfie of myself besides when my friends take a photo of me or I have to do it for the magazine that I am writing.
