About Arm's Length Self Portrait Experience

EDIT: Group name changed to better reflect the rules. 1-12-07

At arm's length: Pictures taken of yourself by yourself. No tripod, no reflective surfaces. Without a tripod, self portraits can be tricky. It's often hard to re-create the exact image, so when you get a good one, it's often unique and ephemeral. We can also explore the proverbial "buddy" shots, i.e. where you hold a camera at arm's length to get everyone in. I think the amateurish nature of this type of photo is particularly interesting.

Please make sure the photos you are adding to the pool are meeting the group guidelines.

1. Of you, by you.
2. Taken at arm's length (you holding the camera)
3. No mirror shots or other reflective surfaces
4. No shots of just your shadow
5. No timer shots, you hold the camera

As a quick rule, if I can see your camera or both your hands, it doesn't belong here.

Thanks so much for your cooperation and participation!

Although all the photos taken are beautiful and unique, pictures taken in reflective surfaces or that are obviously portraits of other people other than yourself will be removed.


Spanish:

1. De ti, por ti.
2. Tomadas únicamente sosteniendo la cámara.
3. No tu reflejo.
4. No tu sombra.

Como regla simple, si se ven ambas manos en la foto, entonces la foto no pertenece a este grupo.

No trípodes, ni fotos tomadas al espejo o superficies que te reflejen.
La gracia del grupo es, justamente, que tu mismo te saques la foto, sin ningún "intermediario".

Gracias.
