Photo Friday: Selfie

I had a blog post by the same title in 2013, but that's okay.

One of the great things that I really like about my 360-degree camera is that the software that is used in post-processing removes the selfie stick that comes with the camera, which means that the resulting image looks like it came from a drone or from another photographer.

When I made my first video with my Insta360 One X, I used four of the six scenes that I captured with the camera. But when the files were transferred from the camera to my smart phone, one of the scenes left a still frame in my Google Photos timeline.

The photo captured me, as I walked to the first lookout point, at the bottom of the falls. It's shot from above, the horizon bending to the camera's fisheye lens.

I took the still image and processed it with Prisma—a tool that I haven't used in quite some time—using the Dallas filter.


It almost looks like a candid shot, as though I was unaware that an invisible lens, hovering above me, was watching my every move (as I ignore the sign that warns me of a $100 fine for walking).

Happy Friday!
