The first Selfie ever taken - 1914
« on: September 02, 2017, 05:16:20 AM »

The Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna, at the age of 13, was one of the first teenagers who made a selfie using a mirror to send her friend in 1914. In the letter that accompanied the photo, she wrote: "I took this photo, in which I look in the mirror. It was very difficult, because my hands were shaking. "

i've heard the reason that no one smiles on these early pics is because there was always the fear that the camera would explode.

Actually it's because the cameras back then had long exposure times. Any movement would blur the face. Subjects where told to stay still for the exposure to take.
