You know. You are finished for the day and there's a sheet of unexposed film in one of the holders. You want to develop the film so what are you going to do? The answer is often, "Selfie."
When your exposure is over a minute and a half, stuff happens. I must have bumped the camera too. Nice double image. Keeps you humble.
This distinguished Indian gentleman wouldn't normally seem the type to be keen on a selfie, but the Buddhist temple in Chinatown has a lovely charm and calm that draws in tourists of all religions for a peek inside.
With the Lunar New Year coming up next week, the temple is literally shining: there was a temple staff working on the cauldron in the courtyard where devotees place their joss sticks seeking answers to prayers, a small toothbrush and some brass polish bringing back the original gleam for this special occasion.
It's no wonder the front-facing cameras on smartphones are getting better, they're getting used more than the rear-facing cameras!

Inspired by some of my friends flash work, I thought i would spend some time practising. It was selfie time!!!
I was playing with two light set ups. Although I couldn't take this to the street, it will be workable in a modified format.
The key light is camera right in a soft box and a rogue flashbender diffusion panel to get some double diffusion going on. It is at 1/4 power. I have a black board camera left next to me and facing the light to add some shadow to the left hand side of my face (my walls are cream coloured and very close and I was getting too much reflection).
I have got a second flash in a diffusion cap and with a brown gel on it bouncing off the ceiling (I went for brown to match the wood colour of the environment). I have also blocked it from hitting me with a foam board. Power is at 1/8th and this was acting as a light for the background and some general fill.
I used my relatively crappy Nikon D3100 to have something to focus on and to add something else to the picture. I haven't quite got it focused on my eyes but for a selfie it will do.
There was very little done in lightroom, I think I mainly increased the contrast. In photoshop I reduced the hotspot on my forehead, sharpened the image, desaturated a little and increased the blues in the shadows in colour balance.
Quite happy with how it turned out, given the terrible model who had no dress sense and was terrible at being directed :-)

Una autofoto o "selfie" és un tipus d’autoretrat.
El 2013 la Universitat d'Oxford, en el seu diccionari de llengua anglesa, va nomenar "selfie" la paraula de l’any.
S’acostuma a relacionar amb el món de les xarxes socials i Internet.
Són informals, es pengen a la xarxa amb la intenció de tenir més “m’agrades” en la pàgina de Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc.
És popular entre els adolescents i s’ha convertit en un fenomen de moda.
Normalment es fa amb les càmeres dels telèfons mòbils.

sitting here I turned to full length mirror used to check work and positions and took this selfie, adjusting the lighting and
adding the sparkle and some magic wrinkle remover....:-)
Just me wearing my Christmas Bon-Bon hat! I hope you're all having a lovely Christmas day with your family and friends.

I wanted to go for an extra dramatic effect with dil. B, but overdeveloped a bit. Pictures without too much contrast turned out OK however.
Developed in Bellini Euro HC

A shot of JJ and me in front of the Brighton Pavilion. (Sometimes I wish my arms were just a little bit longer! I could get a selfie stick? Nah!)
Next Saturday is Matt and Sophie's wedding day, and naturally, as mother of the groom, choosing a dress to wear is very important! I narrowed my choice down to three, but this one has now been rejected - I might stick out like a sore thumb in red! Trouble is, I'm really have trouble choosing between the other two, as I love them both equally!
Strange picture of Tim and me in our typically messy bedroom - he isn't about to strangle me, as it may appear - he is trying to change my necklace!!
