it proves i'm here!

a man takes a selfie by the nathan phillips square in downtown toronto. he couldn't decide where to put his V sign or whether he should smile or not. it really took him a while taking several shots of himself. this type of self-portrait is one i couldn't learn.

for beau's september people theme.

When I see people trying so hard to get it right I want to watch in fascination but also to take the camera away and snap it for them.

Such a spectacular image! You are getting these people shuts down really well! You have found some very interesting characters to shoot!

[Susana]

hahahaha so fun to look at people while taking selfies

[Janiskay]

I wouldn't even be able to see the screen from that far away. Perhaps he would have been better off shooting his shoes.

ROFL

[Rita]

so much more sense to ask someone to shoot you!

[Jill Hempsall]

Selfie sticks! I'm not keen. Must have been quite fascinating to watch him though - and I love those red trainers.

Oh I can think of SO MANY things to say about this, but all would be speculative and simply my reaction to seeing this sort of thing more and more. This man in your photo could be the "International Poster Child" for today's self-serving selfies! (THERE are some esses for you!)
