THE REDLINE CHALLENGE
Piotr Skrzypiec from Slovenia with his winning image: Lost Highway.
“It’s a huge achievement. For me, as a Canon user, the prize is the best set of equipment that I could imagine,” exclaims the photographer and now owner of the Canon EOS R5 and additional Canon gear totalling over EUR 14,000. Piotr will also take on a personal photography assignment, set and mentored by Canon Ambassador and internationally renowned photographer, Lorenz Holder.
“When fog happens only a few times per year, it’s very hard to get there at the right moment. In those conditions, it was really amazing to see,” shares Piotr, the photographer behind the winning image, Lost Highway, captured on the Canon EOS 5D Mark IV at 30 sec, f/8 and ISO 800. © Piotr Skrzypiec
