In my many years of photography, I have made many self-portraits, all from a timer-released shutter on a tripod. While at dinner this evening with Jeanine, Maya, and her friend Maddie, I made my first selfie (own arm used in lieu of tripod). Everyone at the table was howling with laughter as Maya instructed me in the art, explaining the nuances of proper angles, aiming, and lighting. I was able to follow her instructions well enough to obtain this image which I am quite happy with.
