About selfies

I sometimes miss those photo moments when the photographer placed the camera on a tripod or another support, engaged the self timer of the camera and ran towards the other people anxiously waiting for him or her to put his arms around the photographer and wait for the shutter to click. Ah well!
Before we tripped over a tripod, now we bump into selfie sticks.


​The Leica M9 was resting on my camera bag.

The self timer set to ten seconds.

Avant on s'enfargeait dans le trépied, maintenant on se frappe la tête sur un «selfie stick»

Le Leica M9 était appuyé sur mon sac photo. 
Le retardateur réglé à dix secondes.

    How beautiful it is to get up and go out and do something. We are here on Earth to fart around. Don't let anybody tell you any different.
