With the theme of landscape this year the day has seen social media flooded with photos of amazing landscapes.
None are more beautiful than that of Clee Hill - a selfie with a difference taken by Jon Simpson.
The Ludlow photographer posted a photo of him sitting atop Clee Hill gazing out Shropshire below and the cirrus clouds above.
He said: "It's World Photography Day and the theme is landscape, so I chose a throwback to to a long range timer fired selfie sitting on top of the world, or rather Clee Hill – what a view"
