Self-portraits

Do you feel uninspired for photography? Try something else… try self-portrait.

Photograph yourself …

Take a picture of your shadow; in reflections on different surfaces, whether alone or accompanied; use the camera of your cell phone, the front or the back; or use the camera you normally bring along with you …

I think self-portraits are fun. They are not really art, but they have already existed and there are still many who took the self-portraits seriously, such as the great photographers Lee Friedlander and Vivian Maier . See for example this post on Friedlander’s selfies(*).
