Let's hear some praise for the selfie. Sure, some people think it's a vain hobby, but taking selfies is an amazing way to document where you've been and who you've spent time with. As you look back, you can feel some pride in your personal style, your journeys across Maryland, and your photography skills! If you want some selfies that you can really be excited to post, we've got some suggestions. Here are just a few of the many places in Maryland that are amazing selfie spots.
1. American Visionary Art Museum
This kooky spot in Baltimore is paradise for anyone who wants some offbeat photos of themselves! Pose with Fifi, the museum's enormous pink poodle mascot, or with the glittering mosaic wall. There's so much color and energy to be found in this museum, and you'll be sure to get plenty of great shots.
2. Ocean City Boardwalk
There are dozens of great selfie spots in this nostalgic, timeless vacay spot! Pose in front of the iconic boardwalk vendors like Dumsers or Thrashers, or with the shark that has smashed through the wall of the Ripley's Believe it or Not! When night falls, the lights of the midway and the shops will make a fantastic backdrop.
3. Cunningham Falls State Park
There are so many gorgeous waterfalls in Maryland, and a selfie near any of them would be a great way to celebrate a hike in Maryland's many parks. But Cunningham Falls State Park is a particularly beautiful one -- and the entire park is full of jaw-dropping greenery. There's even an aviary where you can snap a selfie with an owl!
You may not realize how much nature, both wild and cultivated, exists right in Baltimore, and this arboretum is evidence of just how beautiful it is! You'll get that perfect shot among the gorgeous trees, within the bamboo forest, outside the stunning mansion, and along the winding trails.
The sculpture garden, the mosaics, the many wings full of stunning art from across the centuries...you can't go wrong in the BMA! The building itself is a striking backdrop, too. Just keep in mind this is the place for personal, not professional selfies, so bring your iPhone and leave the flash off.
