Selfies Queens – #NaBloPoMo May 1 – #Selfies

In May, I am going to blog everyday and attempting the fun NaBloPoMo. The theme for May is Photos which means everyday will be a photo post! Yayy…

Today’s prompt: Do you like taking selfies? Why or why not? Photo: You

Do I like taking Selfies? Yes I do! They are whole lots of fun 🙂 My daughter loves taking selfies much more than I do and I call her selfie queen. So the title of this post is also dedicated to her. When she gets a phone in hand she makes all sorts of funny faces and clicks one after another. There are never less than twenty selfies at one go!

Why do I like taking selfies?

First up, they are fun. Once you get past the consciousness of posing and finding the right angle, a selfie is loads of fun! I did struggle with taking good selfies initially. I then found a great video by Michelle Phan. In this video she explains the art and science of taking good selfies. It is a short video but very very effective. She talks about lighting, angles and sides.

Most people take selfies in the bathroom. That is my least favourite setting though! I love taking selfies in the car. On my way to work. While I have taken selfies on my travels too, I prefer taking selfies to capture day to day moments. Most of my selfies will have been taken on good hair days or good skin days. A few would be on good makeup days too.

Finally, here are some of my pics 🙂
