Set shutter etc. what she wanted, knew exactly where she needed to stand and look. Then someone else tripped the Rollie shutter.????????????MAYBE????????????? OR? She using a long cable release, cable inside her jacket out to camera and she just looked kinda serious? "CLICK!" Then whomever said she took a self portrait??????????????? OR?
