Self Portrait vs Selfie

1) A selfie is a photograph that one has taken of oneself, typically taken with a smartphone or webcam and shared via social media.
2) A self portrait is a a portrait that an artist produces of themselves.
3) There is a difference between selfies and self portraits.  Self portraits are created using more time, money, and skill, while selfies can be created by anyone and are much more common. Because selfies are so easy to create, and self portraits take time and skill, there is an obvious difference between the two.
4) I like self portraits more because they often have more interesting things happening in them and they are harder to create than a selfie. Anyone can create a self portrait or selfie but because so many people take selfies, it makes them less cool to see.
5) I don't think one is more important than the other, however, old self portraits that are in museums are more important than some random selfie that I might have on my phone, Some of these famous self portraits stand for something or tell a story and I think that that is more important than a random picture.
