There is something quietly epic about 'The Center of My World' photo series. Perhaps it has to do with the fact that these [self-portraits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-powered-portrait-studio) focus on a little, lonely soul who is captured in a rather [big and dramatic setting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/epic-ai-travel-photos). The contrast between the two is simply stunning.

Photographed by Switzerland-based Jonas Fornerod, 'The Center of My World' photo series is also poetic due to its singular theme and excellent execution.
