Selfies

Syllabification: (sel·fie)
Pronunciation: /ˈselfē/
(also selfy)

noun (plural selfies)

informal
 a photograph that one has taken of oneself, typically one taken with a smartphone or webcam and uploaded to a social media website:occasional selfies are acceptable, but posting a new picture of yourself everyday isn’t necessary


"Selfie" is 2013's word of the year according to the prestigious Oxford Dictionary.  I think that social media is the cause. 

Here are a collection of selfie's that I have posted on social media.


Cheers!

  1. Ben, in my humble opinion as a neophyte photographer ..... your posts are quantum light years beyond the run-of-the-mill selfies we all too frequently see. Seriously, very subtle and creative. Sort of reminiscent of of Hitchcock quietly inserting himself in his own films. Very cool.

    1. Thanks! I'm so glad you said Hitchcock and not Stephen King. Cheers!
