An author has scoured the globe to write a guide of the most spectacular views - from the toilet.
Luke Barclay, 33, compiled a comprehensive list of loos with a view, chronicling the best places to spend a penny, reports Metro.
He travelled to some of the remotest locations in the world to record restrooms in the most stunning surroundings for his book, Good Loo Hunting.
Top lavatory locations listed include the plains of Africa, Mount Sinai, in Egypt and Lake Titicaca between Peru and Bolivia.
"The toilet can't just be in a great location, you actually have to have a window so that you can see the view while doing your business, as it were," said Mr Barclay.
The researcher, who bills himself "chief loo hunter", picked up the trail of the world's best toilets after writing an earlier book, Loos With Views, two years ago.
Armed with fresh information, he travelled around the world to exotic locations in hot pursuit of the perfect privy.
He captured loos around Europe, South America and even spotted elephants crossing the Zambezi River in Africa from one loo.
Other spectacular snaps include loos on snow-topped mountains and sun-drenched national parks.
