The Holdie-Outie
This is my word for the ubiquitous picture--one or two people staring into a camera with the hint of an arm directing the lens back at them. I believe the shot is a fairly modern manifestation--an indication of our growing narcissism. Look through you family photo album; do you see your parents taking "holdie-outies"?

Has the evolution of cameras contributed to this phenomenon? Has the focal length modernization allowed this shot when before people's arms weren't long enough? Or are we just so alone now that we can't find someone to take a shot for us.
