The theme for the weekly photo challenge this week is selfie. Cheri Lucas Rowlands over at WordPress writes: “if you don’t want to share a photo of yourself, think of a way to approach this challenge in a different way. (Hint: silhouettes and shadows are your friends.) A selfie doesn’t have to be all about you; it can reveal much more, given the elements you choose to include.”
I’ve posted self-portraits earlier in the blog. If you’re interested you can find them here:

Lately I’ve been very busy and haven’t had the time to blog, respond to comments in this blog or visit other blogs. Hopefully I’ll get back on track shortly!
Great reflection of a distorted self.
Thank you Allen!
Love these kind of shots! Very well done, especially the first one. Nice.
The first one is more serious. The second one is my “bubble-self”.
Clever and creative!
Thank you very much Sue.

Excellent idea, very well captured… 🙂 🙂

LikE lots.
very cool bendy ness.
That distorted Cardinal is so unique!
Nice entry!
Some phallic nose. Chuckle… Clever, Cardinal.
I can be a real phallus sometimes 😀
Interesting shots, I’m not one to really appreciate the standard selfie, so I like your take on the challenge.
I’d recognize you anywhere, a great Cardinal shot!
Hehe, well said… 🙂
very clever…love the way you have to use your imagination for selfies…well at least some people do
That darn comment box on the Reader does NOT work! Grrrr … I thought I already commented here.
I like this week’s challenge. It’s nice to have bloggers put a face on their works. Now, I feel like stealing your nose. Ahihihi 😀
Hehe, it would be easier to steal in real life (at least then it would fit your pocket!) This reflection doesn’t really make me look good 😀
I agree that it’s nice to see some self-portraits of our fellow bloggers.

A very arty shot Cardinal! 😀
Like!! 🙂
And can I line up the top image for sots, too, please?
Yes, please do Ashley 🙂
Are ‘selfie’ and ‘self portrait’ the same thing? I’m not sure. I have completely different pictures in my head for the two terms. I think I’d call this a self portrait rather than a selfie. Thinking . . . thinking . . .
I agree with you. They are two different things and these are self-portraits, but I just called them ‘selfies’ so that they would fit the theme of the photo challenge…
A selfie is a typical mobile phone photo, where you hold the camera (the phone) in one hand.
Oooops! and thank you for your permissions Cardinal. 🙂
