Having a solid light source is an essential part of taking any kind of photograph, and selfies are no different. If you try to take a selfie in a dimly-lit room or one with harsh fluorescent lighting, it won't turn out the way you want it to. Natural light is the most flattering kind, so try to take your selfie near a window or outdoors. Keep these factors in mind when you shoot: Keep the sun or other light source in front of you, a bit above eye level, for the most flattering shot. The light will brighten and soften your features, rather than casting harsh shadows across your face. If it's off to the side or behind you, your features could appear shadowy or distorted. Consider using a thin curtain to diffuse sunlight or a single light source. It makes the light softer and more flattering. It will give the impression of smoother, softer facial lines so that your smile appears more attractive. Natural light renders colors more faithfully than artificial light, but you can use artificial light to fill shadows. If you don't have the best lighting, most modern digital cameras have some automatic color correction to make up for it. Don't use your flash if you can help it. It'll create a forehead glare, distort your appearance and possibly give your selfie the redeye effect. Many cell phones have two cameras: one in the back, and one in the front. Instead of using the camera in the front to take selfies, use the one in the back. The back camera takes higher-resolution pictures than the front camera, which will end up taking a blurrier selfie. You'll have to turn the phone around, and you won't be able to see your face as you take the picture, but it's worth the trouble to use the back camera. The picture will appear in reverse, your camera will be visible, and you're likely to end up with a strange glare. Plus, your selfie could appear distorted, since mirror glass doesn't always reflect back a perfectly accurate image. Stretch out your arm, use your wrist to point the camera toward your face, and snap away. It might take some practice to get it right, but eventually you'll know exactly where to position the camera to make sure it captures your whole face (and never cuts off the top of your head). The exception would be if you want to take a full-body selfie, since it can be hard to capture more than your head and shoulders without using a mirror. Practice using both your right and left hand to take selfies. See which one allows you to get the angles you want. The best selfies have more than just a face. There's something interesting to look at in the background, too. Whether you take your selfie inside or outdoors, check around you first to see what's going on in the background. Position yourself so that you're in front of the background you want people to see. Nature always makes a great background. In the spring and summer, you can pose in a small wooded area or near a blossoming bush of flowers if you need a quick and easy backdrop. For fall, capture the color of the changing leaves in the background, and in winter, capture the majesty of ice and snow. If nature is not your thing, you could stay indoors and take a selfie in your room. Tidy things up first, though. You could also display something interesting in the background as long as it is not distracting. For instance, if you love to read, then a bookcase or stack of books would be a good backdrop. A movie poster with a lot of different people on it could be distracting, however. The standard culprits include younger siblings, crying children, and dogs taking a bathroom break on the lawn behind you. Before you snap your selfie, take a quick look around to make sure that no one and nothing is lurking in the shadows, waiting to ruin your moment. Of course, if a photo-bomber still manages to sneak into your selfie, you can always retake the photo after the intrusion leaves. Just make sure to check the background thoroughly before you upload your newest selfie. Sometimes photo-bombers actually add to the selfie! Don't discount a picture just because it has your little sister in it. Her goofy face juxtaposed with your serious one could make it that much more interesting a picture. If you do not want to re-take your selfie, you can always remove the photo-bomber using an image manipulation program, or just crop your image using your smartphone's built-in image editing features. The first requirement of a selfie is that you have be in it, but there's no rule that says you have to be alone! Grab some friends, siblings, your dog, and other people to take a picture with you. The picture won't be as controlled, but it'll be visually interesting and fun for other people to look at and share. This is a good way to take a selfie in public if you're self-conscious about taking a picture of just yourself. The more people in the picture, the better when it comes to sharing! If you have a group of friends instead of just one or two, the picture is likely to get passed around and liked by more people.

Summary: Pay attention to good lighting. Use your phone's back camera. Don't use a mirror unless there's no other way to get the shot you want. Consider the background of your picture. Watch out for photo-bombers. Grab a few more people to be in the photo.

Sit on your butt on the floor with your knees bent, feet flat on the floor, and your spine straight. You will need to lean back a bit, and place your hands behind you for support. If you want to make it a bit harder, you can try to keep your hands off the floor to keep your ab muscles engaged. The band should go over both of your legs, and should be placed behind your knees, about two inches up. The band should be tight enough that it is challenging to push your knees away from each other, but not so difficult that you can't move them with effort. With your spine straight, your chin up, and your abs tight, take a breath in, and as you exhale, press your knees away from each other. Press them far enough apart that you feel the muscles on the outer part of your thighs contracting. Hold the exercise for four seconds, and as you release exhale. Do not hold your breath as this may make you feel dizzy! If it is your first time doing the exercise, you may only be able to repeat the exercise a few times; however, as you get stronger, you should aim for three sets of 15 reps. Try to do this exercise three to five times each week. Therefore, you should do the exercise 15 times, stop for a little break, and then repeat another 15 times. Then, take another break, and repeat again 15 times.

Summary: Sit on the floor. Place the band around your legs. Begin the exercise. Repeat the exercise.
