Scenic selfies


A photographer has shot this series of scenic selfies - scaling freezing mountain tops to snap himself in front of stunning scenery. Paul Zizkas breath-taking work features himself in front of beautiful backdrops such as shimmering lakes, snowy mountains and vibrant auroras.

He has travelled to a number of different locations worldwide including Canada, New Zealand, Niue the South Pacific and French Polynesia. Explorer Paul, from Banff, Alberta, Canada, saw his selfies go viral early in 2014 - and has now unveiled his latest work. He said: I find that sometimes including a person in a landscape scene adds to the photograph - that it conveys a different story. (Caters News)
