Make your own cloth face mask (can be a fun creative activity), or buy a face mask which has a nice design, nice colors, etc.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cindy&#8217;s younger sister Jennifer made a face mask for me and Cindy; and I really like the one she made for me. A lovely evergreen green color. And for cindy; a nice wine-burgundy color.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shooting RICOH GR III in jpeg and cross process filter mode is interesting. The green comes out super interesting when I shoot selfies, especially of myself and the sky!]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to shoot selfies of yourself with a face mask<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course you can do it however you want. Some ideas of what I&#8217;ve been doing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Use RICOH GR III to shoot selfies of yourself by extending your arm outwards, and facing yourself. From shooting from an Uber-low angle, or an Uber-high angle. Shoot verticals and horizontals. Experiment with macro mode.<\/li><li>Shoot selfies with a flash.<\/li><li>Shoot selfies with your iPhone. Experiment with different reflections and lighting situations.<\/li><li>Shoot with the sun or against the sun<\/li><li>Experiment with different backgrounds. Colorful backgrounds or neutral backgrounds.<\/li><li>Shoot color or black and white<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Then when you got your epic selfie photos, upload your best to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/arsbeta.com\/\">arsbeta.com<\/a>&nbsp;and also give feedback to others in the community!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/arsbeta.com\/\">ARS<\/a>: The Future of Social Media for Photographers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/arsbeta.com\/\">ARS<\/a>: ARS is your art.
