I don't normally like taking selfies, but these are ones I shot a couple of months ago with a beauty dish and a soft box, both firing Yongnuo speedlights.
First one is my "Walter White" look! lol :)

@fotojack, I have a technical question about your first posted selfie where you cropped the top of your head out. I'm just trying to understand the thought process when a crop like that is made (rather than just leaving a little space at top). Is it because you want to get tighter on the face? Or perhaps leave out something distracting? I see it fairly often and I quite like it. I just want to understand why the decision is made to do so.

Artistic licence. :) That's all it is. Just something I felt like doing. :)

I thought this could be an interesting and fun thread.

What I want is not your ordinary selfies but selfies that are thinking out of the box. Experiment with lighting etc to create unique photos of yourself.

Lets have some fun.

Here are a few older ones that I have done.

Very cool! Nice integration with the water and expressionsScott. My strobes have been shipped tomy retirement house in the Philippines which I kind a miss playing with.

I haven't done a selfie in years. Oh how I dislike cellphone selfies due to their distortion, but it was quick. And what a weird reflection of the car's dash in my glasses. :beguiled: It's really an example of how NOT to do a selfie! ;)
