The more you photograph, the more you realize what can and what can’t be photographed. You just have to keep doing it.
~ Eliot Porter
I ordered this fan from one of those Chinese websites where things are just so cheap! Actually, most of my photo props came from there. I wanted to take several images where I hold this fan, covering different parts of my body. And I did… and then I looked at the images on the screen and… slapped my head!
I have done a couple of photoshoots after that, but then used my phone so I could see the shot, but I think I will soon start using the remote control again, and maybe redo these photos with the fan! However, somehow I think it’s fun that I have remembered to hide my face, but not the clicker!
Like the quote says: I will just keep on doing it.
The photography of course, not holding the remote in such a way that it can be seen!

Hmm I was not focused on the clicker!
I honestly don’t know how self-photographers do it, I would be all over the place!
I do agree that you should re-do these fan images, this is beautiful.
haha, that’s too funny about the clicker! but this really is a beautiful photo, it’s very gentle and feminine.
(also, I think the secret language of fans is just amazing and perhaps related to this, your photo feels so evocative.)
I’m not sure I would’ve noticed the clicker if I hadn’t read your words! I was too mesmerised by your pose and the complimentary colours and patterns of the fan and your tattoo, such a gorgeous pose!
I love this! I think you look gorgeous and exotic
I like it. I always hide the clicker too, but this photo demonstrates that it’s not necessarily a flaw.
This is so lovely Rebel! I was so busy admiring the way your tattoo snakes lovingly around your breast and leads my eye right to the bright fan that I didn’t even see the clicker! But I’ve definitely done this many times myself. You look amazing though!
I’m certainly a fan of this photo ☺
I have so many like that! Lovely image.
I love how the colours in the fan are so similar to the colours of your tattoo and I have done that SO many times with my remote or phone

And it is such a gorgeous fan . . . works so beautifully with your tattoo . . . just gorgeous !!!
And I probably wouldn’t have given the clicker a second thought until you mentioned it.

Beautiful photo, I didn’t notice the clicker until reading the text after!
I agree with May, and now I have to seek out a fan too.
This is the kind of forgetful thing I would do, if I was intelligent enough to own a remote…

Gorgeous photo though xx
