Selfies

So for the past 45 minutes or so my wife has been in the kitchen with our Hudl tablet, holding it at all manner of angles, kitchen light on, off, blinds open, half open and shut. Standing, crouching, leaning, and umpteen variations of facial expression!!

When I eventually asked her what she was doing, she said trying to take a selfie.

Apparently none of the photo's looked like her, and I can assure you, they ALL looked like her!!

Thoughts please :wave:

    The only good thing about selfie sticks is they can act as lightning rods. :D

    Most people apart from the very photogenic or narcissists are happy with their snapshot.

    "God, I can't look that bad!" we say and have another go.

    Well she has finally got one that is acceptable, looks like the other million pictures and has been uploaded with the caption "just relaxing"

    It didn't look relaxing to me tbh

    She does confuse me at times

    Selfie-stick - anyone who's got one should take a long hard look at themselves...

    None of us know how she looks so it may and I will emphasise the word may be an improvement for her husband to look at this instead. :)
