Some great shadow selfies! I love Trafalgar Square.Oh my! Totally forgot to upload my this year's holiday postcards!
This one also includes a found face in a picassoesque way. [emoji4]

It's not even my banana.
Stratford is off shadow selfie piste surely? It's my favorite mind.

You mean because it is more reflection? It's still only shadows I can hardly make out any lines as the light came from the back so it was just "the dark sides" shadows to be seen. In my understanding yes, it is a shadow selfie. [emoji4]
I must agree with rizole... Stratford is a reflection in glass. But there's plenty of other great shadows. [emoji1360]
Very TWAC-tile shotsOh my! Totally forgot to upload my this year's holiday postcards!

Headlight shadow selfie taken as car drives by (grainy action shot). Shadow hard to discern but there
Looks like something from a horror movie, or a Stephen King book cover.
It would make a great murder mystery book cover.
Bit of a split personality then? [emoji3]

Street light shadow selfie.
Or rather, wharf light.
iPhone 6 and Fusion, although this is actually the unedited underexposed bracket rather than the HDR result.

Woofie walking shadow selfie.
Photographed in Quebec last fall where we rented a cottage for a few days, dredged up from the archives. iPhone 6 & Fusion.

Accidental shadow selfie.
Angel & Woofie at the beach in 2015. I'm sure everyone has situations where in the middle of making a picture you realize your own shadow is in the picture and you rearrange yourself to eliminate your shadow.
In other situations you also realize you don't have time to move back and zoom-in because the moment you are photographing is fleeting and if you fiddle around too long you will miss the occasion and have nothing. So you shoot in spite of your shadow, knowing you can probably clone the shadow away later.

Deliberate shadow selfie 2015.
Sometimes while out photographing you see an angle that interests you and you raise your phone/camera to frame the subject to explore your idea further when you realize your shadow is in the picture and the subject is such that moving to get your shadow out of the picture ruins the composition. And then you also think, actually, my shadow right there introduces a useful compositional element. Then you override your self-censoring concerning the taboo of getting your own shadow in the picture, the obvious mark of a careless amateur. Then you find out your picture also says, I was there.
Now what can you do with such a photo? Then Shadow Selfies comes along providing the venue.
