January 13: In a Mirror

Thinking someone might have an idea on how to achieve this. Any thing I’ve done with a mirror has resulted in seeing my phone in the image which I’d rather not have....or is it as simple as cropping out my hand and phone before scrapping it?
Ask the hairdresser to take the pic for you? I'm envious that you can visit the hairdresser, we've gone into lockdown yet again :(

Hadn’t thought of that - we had only one national lockdown in March/April for 5 weeks then a shorter regional one in August I think for maybe 2 weeks. Definitely helps we haven’t had any community transmission for 2 months so we are back to almost “normal”

What about making you a part of the photo in the mirror? Use the selfie view with your back to the mirror. You can have as much or as little of your face in the photo as possible. I just tried it in my bathroom mirror and by moving my phone around I had different amounts of myself showing. I was actually trying to see if I could get both the front of my hairstyle and the back in the same photo this way and I could. Then when you scrap it you can crop it to your liking.

Great idea, thanks @HavaDrPepper
 
Thanks for the challenge, Tracie! My daughter came up with the idea for this page. She asked me if I could take two photos and put them together so that her lipstick face was in the reflection in the mirror. I sure can, so I did! Haha!!

 
Here's my take. I took one of our mirrors outside into the snow and shot a photo of my daughter in her boots.

Sorry for the uninspired photo! It's about 15 degrees Fahrenheit here, and we're on another 28-day lockdown. Behold: my dog in my laundry room!...
