Self Portrait at Pancake Creek, by Cameron Cope

Sometimes I like to deliberately place myself in a landscape, to remind the viewer that what they are looking at when they see a landscape photograph is as much a human creation as a natural one. This photograph was taken on Pancake Creek, Queensland, Australia.
