An on-going series of Reverse Scenic Selfies™
All photographs by Cheryl Hill except where noted

"Humans are a tiny part of nature, and should never be depicted as nature's equal." -- Edward Albini

Too many nature selfies put the individual front and center, relegating the natural element to the background. RSS™ restores the proper balance between nature and human. We encourage you to implement RSS™ in your own nature selfies.
