People Encouraged To Improve Their Selfie Skills With The Selfie Stick Monopod

Great Gadgets Inc., a gadget and electronics company in Seattle, WA, is soon to release their new selfie stick monopod on Amazon. This selfie stick, the PikStik, is the most compact selfie stick on the market today. Great Gadgets Inc. hopes to encourage people to improve their selfie taking skills thanks to this monopod and even share their pictures through Facebook and other mediums.

"We want to encourage everybody to visit our Facebook page and give us a like", says Zach Wilson from Great Gadgets Inc. "Once they have started using our PikStik, we would also love it if they could share some of their best selfies. After all, taking pictures is about showing things to the world!"

Once the PikStik is released, people will need to know just how to take a really good selfie. Luckily, there is plenty of information out there to learn how to truly rock these types of pictures. A selfie is essentially a self-portrait and because cameras today can capture even the greatest details, it is very important that the subject of the selfie has a look in the mirror (or the camera screen) first.

Another great tip that has been provided to get the most out of a selfie stick is to focus on lighting. Many people seek the shadows, hoping that it will hide blemishes. While this is true to some degree, it does nothing for the photograph. A good selfie is taken in excellent lighting. With a selfie stick, this is a lot easier because it is possible to angle the camera slightly more than what would be possible by simply holding it by hand.

Another great tip is about how many people are on the image. "Selfies work best when there are lots of people in the picture", adds Zach Wilson. "The problem is that it can be really difficult to fit lots of people in the frame if you have to hold the camera by hand. This is where our PikStik comes in handy again, however. Since you can put a bit of distance between the camera and the subject, you can get more people in as well."

A final great tip for taking the perfect selfie is confidence. Selfies are supposed to be fun and goofy. Someone who wants to take a crazy selfie but then feels silly in doing so shows this in the image, which will ruin it. With the PikStik- The world's most compact selfie stick, this should no longer be an issue. Because it allows for greater distance between subject and camera, those taking the selfie can really go crazy in the spirit in which selfies were actually invented. Great Gadgets Inc. is looking forward to seeing the images people create.
