Self-portrait at Prater

Taken with classical equipment, advertising mobile phones...

This was one of the first self-portraits made with the mobile phone,

much lighter than the mechanical SLR I am using most of the time.

I did not learn of my mistake then though, but much later: in

September on a trip through Romania somebody told me that if the face

is in shadow and the background in the sun, the photo cannot be good

(this before pressing the button).

For this reason I think the photo, while not being good, is worth

discussing.

Is this an universal rule?

Thanks!

I see, I need a new camera ... maybe till next time in Vienna this April (although I doubt I will go around with the wheel again).

thanks for revisiting, see you around

Maria

You look great and so young to me. Even in that picture from a celular phone.

Regards

ciao, thanks for the compliment.

I hope to have inherited that family feature, indeed - my grandma always looked 10 years younger than she was ...

Although it is sometimes a disadvantage, for example when you want people to show respect ...
