Among the most used new words on the Internet, the one whose meaning is now known by everyone, which can also be said to be abused (especially by a certain junk TV) is Selfie . The Selfie is nothing but the self-timer made with the mobile phone, generally done with the hand stretched out in front, to share the photo on Facebook or on other social networks. Taking a selfie is not the easiest thing in the world, even depending on the smartphone used.
To do this easily, you can use the front camera of the mobile phone, if available, but you must give up a quality photo since the front is always less powerful than the rear one. If you are using the rear camera, you need to be a bit adept at holding the cell phone in your hand and touching the right button. It is also important to orient the photo in order to have good lighting, not to have a photo that is too dark.
Here are some great tips for taking perfect selfie photos and the best apps to use for iPhone and Android to make them easier .
