I believe you can photograph yourself in these new phones etc called Selfies.
About 15 years ago I bought a new camcorder to use on a cruise I was going on. I wanted to learn all about it before I went so used it on myself. I truly don't know how I done it.
I put a Karoake video on TV and turned the camcorder towards myself - I filmed myself and then transferred it onto the video - hence I am on TV singing away with a little jar in my hand of course.
I am wearing my nightie and of course hair was dishevelled - however when I knew I was being successful I changed and brushed the hair and look the part. My friends roared with laughter and never could comprehend how I done it.
I'd say that as long as there have been cameras,people have been able to take 'selfies'.
I guess its because of Facebook that everyone is doing them...and putting them online.
Bet yours isn't,tho...;-)
I'm pleased you had fun with you camcorder but I'm not getting the Dumb and Dumber correlation.....it has been a while since I watched the film though!
It's fair to say you often talk gibberish Conne but like I say it is a while since I've watched Dumb and Dumber so it may be that is missing the point here.
I stand be my previous suggestions....take a moment to read back to yourself what you have typed before pressing submit.....it can save a lot of grief!
