Be it from torrid heights, underwater or at an event like the Oscars, selfies are ruling the roost and there is no stopping them. It came as no surprise when the word was added to the Oxford Dictionary in 2013. Here is a detailed guide that helps you master the art of self-photography.

It is imperative to understand that it isn’t a crime to click a picture of yourself, especially when you feel like belting out your swagger on a good hair day. This does not make you a person who seeks constant validation or a narcissist. Studies have shown that posting selfies on social media forums helps in boosting self confidence (these websites don’t exist only to understand your views on politics or social stigmas.) Caution: Overdoing it may lead to countless negative comments on how you lack a life outside of the rims of a smartphone and of course constant shutter noises may lead to violence.
