Five Amazing Paul Zizka Outdoor Photos

Paul Zizka is one of Canada’s leading outdoor photographers who focuses on night images and time-lapse shots of mountain scenes.

Based in Banff, he spends most of his time travelling to remote areas to capture moments. Here are five amazing images from Zizka.

I'm excited to finally have a dedicated space for my work here in Banff: starting next month the @rimrockresort will display 17 of my favourite Canadian Rockies winter images. The photographs are all available for sale and will rotate with the seasons. We're kicking off the exhibit on March 30th with an evening opening! Visit my Facebook page for event details. About the image: "Skyward" – Mount Assiniboine withstands yet another westerly storm.

Looking back on 2018 – July/August. Summer in the Canadian Rockies is sacred for me. There's just nowhere else I'd rather be. We had a lengthy fire season in the Rockies again this year, but made the most of it. Here are a few special moments from this past summer, before the smoke moved in… On the menu: snow caves, northern lights, family time, mountaineering, aerial photography, backcountry explorations and of course plenty of nights under the stars. Check out my stories for the other shots! Hope you enjoy! Here's to a lot of time outside for everyone in 2019!

Extraordinary Maui! I believe I just topped my "sunset of the year" here in Hawaii. Absolutely dazzling. I don't think I'd ever seen such an array of colours in the sky all at once. And it went on for a such a long time. This was actually taken well after actual sunset when nearly everyone had left. Then the stars came out in full force and it was magic – photos to come! Home to the mountains tonight after a wonderful week of family time here in the Pacific! Self-portrait, Haleakala. Check out my story for behind the scenes.

"Deadvlei Dancers" It still feels like a dream… Spending a night under the stars with these ancient trees was a spiritual experience. I'll never forget the silence, the majesty, the surreal beauty. Thank you Travel Uncharted for making it happen for us. ? Goodnight everyone from beautiful Namibia! ??️
