You are a very pretty young lady Priska and this is a very good 'selfi'.

Oh, thank you so much Jeff - as you know, young is relative... :-)

Today is the 8th, so it must be the second week already!  Here's another one taken on our drive through Wyoming the other day.  Again, minimal postwork ... less than I would have done with a "regular" picture taken with my big camera.  The results with a landscape are pretty soft.  So far what I've learned is that close-up images work pretty well with the phone's camera, and it's not terrific long range or in low light.  (I took a bunch of indoor people snapshots while we were in Kansas, and they're ... well ... they look like snapshots!)

Not really a selfie. But this was taken with my iPhone. I found this cloud quite odd. I guess this cloud decided it did not want to be round and fluffy. So vertical and sharp was the way to go! lol

Looks like someone came by and took a bite out of it!  :P

It does! My husband was saying the cloud was having a bad day and just did not want to be a fluffy cloud. :P

The shape reminds me of the "Doomsday Machine" from the original Star Trek.  :P

Just an exciting moment, I caught with my cell phone.  A little bit of a selfie, and my Mother's Day present my husband decided to give to me early :)  .... what?!!!  I am so excited!  The battery is charging.... yay!  yay!  (isn't my husband great?!)

@ Prisca, So nice to see you, Prisca, you look like a beautiful, lively and sweet young lady to me.

@ Tara, I admire your camera, and your Iphone, my friend.
And I'm surprised that there is so little traffic on the way there, unbelievable.

@ Clive, Your shot is so interesting to see, what a great landscape-capture.

@ kokabeel, I love the shapes of your special cloud.

Wishing you all a lovely weekend.

auntietk ( ) posted Sat, 10 May 2014 at 6:53 PM

@ Melinda:  I think having your feet in the picture with your new camera qualifies!  LOL!  And if you take the picture with your phone, it can be a picture of anything, so it's all good!  :)

When I saw your Self post in the gallery, Crystal, I thought it was meant for here!  Well done!

Good to see you Andrew!  Add a captain's cap and a pipe and you could be Captain Haddock from the Adventures of Tintin!

Here is the Wyoming-moose for Tara. And because it has to be a selfie, you see some fingernails from me on it, which Anna has lacquered for me. And of course I took the photo with my other hand.

kgb224 ( ) posted Sun, 11 May 2014 at 1:20 PM

Amazing uploads evryone.

God bless.

auntietk ( ) posted Sun, 11 May 2014 at 1:40 PM

That's a very cute moose, Jacomina!  Thanks for taking a picture of it for me!  :)  Anna did a wonderful job on your nails.  I bet you've been enjoying looking at them!  I would ... SO festive!  :)

Thankie!

 

 

Those dogs though! I swear furbabies are more manipulative than real babies. Plus the whole 'puppy dog eyes' thing they have going for them!!

 

Love your nails, dochtersions!

I baked today. Hummingbird cupcakes with cream cheese icing .... Mmmmmm.

I take photos of my food, that I make, and post it to facebook :)  So, I am posting it here today, since I used my cell phone.

@Melinda, Mmmmm, that is looking yummy!!!

@ Clive, What an inventive idea with that picture through your glasses. I like it very much.

@ Prisca, thank you for your nice words, and your plane photo is superb. I hope you where not in it by that, I guess, hard landing.

@ Tara, the other souvenir of Wyoming I'll post next week for you.

@ Clive - that's a VERY inventive picture!  I love it!

 

@ Jacomina - can't wait to see your other Wyoming friend!  :)

 

@ Melinda - it's a good thing you don't live closer!  Those look far too delicious, and I love cream cheese frosting!

 

@ Priska - It's never good when the wings fall off!  Wow ... that's an amazing picture!

Oh well, I see I did something wrong yesterday. Or to be precise, I see it not. This photo had to be here already yesterday, LOL.

This is a stupid selfie, made with the Iphone of Anna, which stands in the middle.
Tamara on the left, and right some weird granny-human. :blink:
But you don't have to be afraid, I'm not 'THAT' grandmother.

Thank you, Prisca. btw: These are two of the children of Miriam, our oldest daughter, who live in Switzerland.
Anna will be in August 15 years, and Tamara is 11 years.@ Thank you too, Jeff. Indeed this shot was only for fun, we were a little fooling around.

cfulton ( ) posted Thu, 15 May 2014 at 6:52 AM

Jacomina, that is what our photography is meant to be - 'ph'un!

So good to see you doing so!

That's a great selfie with you and your granddaughters, Jacomina!  :)  Delightful!

While traveling through Wyoming, I thought of several ways to do a selfie.  This is me in the side mirror of the motorhome.

dochtersions ( ) posted Sat, 17 May 2014 at 3:46 PM

Wow Tara, this is a very special selfie, and what is your motorhome long!!!
It looks like you're split into two halves. I see your blue blouse, and arms in two different ways; or Bill also has a blue blouse, and it's the arm of Bill, no, huh?

auntietk ( ) posted Sat, 17 May 2014 at 4:34 PM

@ Jacomina:  There are two mirrors.  The one on top is for seeing out the side, and the bottom one is for seeing right down next to the motorhome.  It's quite curved, which makes you see my arm like that!  LOL!
