YANGON—An exhibition of photographs of epic landscapes and breathtaking scenes of nature from across the globe by a local photographer is now on display at The Secretariat in downtown Yangon.

Our World Through My Lens is photographer U Ye Naing Wynn’s first solo exhibition. He has captured some of the world’s most beautiful natural landscapes during his travels to different continents across the globe. From dramatic mountain peaks in Argentina to colossal waterfalls and dancing northern lights in Iceland, the photographer appears to have used extreme patience and persistence in waiting for the prime moment to capture the perfect shot.

The photography exhibition is taking place at The Secretariat until Monday. / Htet Wai / The Irrawaddy

“The primary aim of this exhibition is to bring awareness to the Myanmar people that the world has lots of beauty and diversity; it’s not just a small bubble that we live in. We should look beyond our own horizons and embrace everything,” said U Ye Naing Wynn.
