It has grounded plans, closed roads and has even been compared to a nuclear winter, but one couple were not going to let the smog in Beijing ruin their big day.
The couple added gas masks to the more traditional wedding outfits before posing for a series of shorts around Guomao Bridge in the Chinese capital.
Severe pollution has hit much of northern China for the past week, with some readings well over 10 times the internationally accepted safety limit.
It is unknown whether the couple had in fact just been married or were taking part in a protest against the heavy pollution.
The smog in Beijing is now so thick that it is blocking sunlight despite recent announced closures or production cuts at 147 of the city’s industrial plants.
