I recognize you, but who's the dude in the black shirt?

I love how many cool and fun selfies are being posted here!

Plenty more where those came from, will post one every other day or so until I run out or when people start complaining about seeing yet another shot of my ugly mug ;D

Thanks for starting this topic btw, awesome idea.
Plenty more, that sounds good! :) I'm glad that so many of you like the topic of selfies too.  8)

Fun shot! and very surprising since I recognized you immediately... ;)
So nice to see you here on NG :-*
Thanks Erik! It's good to be here. Hope to see you soon in real life again! :-*
Love the elevator selfie, so James-Bond-cool!

I also really like the fishy shot and the donkey business, Rick and Jakov!
Keep up the good work!  8)

Some of you might have noticed that the majority of my selfies and self portraits are about placing me in the places I visit, mainly for preserving memories but of course also to show off on Facebook and NG as nothing beats making friends jealous about the cool things one does and sees 8)

This self portrait of me in the Norwegian hut named Møllerbua was taken in 2007 during a two week canoeing trip in the Rogen nature reserve on the Swedish/Norwegian border. We left our canoes behind and went for a two day hike due to really bad weather when we stumbled onto this amazing little hut which had actual beds and a wood burning stove, a nice break from freezing my nuts off and bouncing around in the hammock during yet another stormy night.


D200 and Tokina 12-24mm

Unknowingly at the time the Møllerbua hut would provide salvation for two more nights six years later, not from foul weather but as a safe haven where we could lick our wounds and fix the mangled canoe from the little endeavour shown in the next pic. Technically not a selfie but if it makes some people feel better it was taken with a human selfie stick whom was programmed not to change any of the settings and to keep me in the middle of the frame :P


D800E and Samyang 14/2.8
Cheers,
Jan Anne

One old with selfie stick, several years before I knew it has a name. Taken in 2004 with a F801 and 20mm on a ski pole and a home made remote cord.


There is no illusion, it just looks that way.

Another one from the same mountain. This time with the camera on tripod and with a wireless remote.

HAHAHA. That reminds me of something I did in 2005 when the D70 came to me as the first camera with IR-Remote. I have to dig out that shot. Multiple me there....

No, Jan Anne, as cool as that shot may be - this does not count as a selfie!  ;D

That is so ... MacGyver! :) Very cool.

Also love this one. I was wondering when the first jumping selfies would show up. :)

I know, it was a supportive image of the self portrait to complete the story :)

Could that be called light pollution ?

Definitely light. If it was severe I would not be able to answer.
