Paweł Uchorczak is both a landscape photographer and an explorer, incredibly at home on a European mountain range, thousands of feet up with nothing but the clouds – and his Canon camera – for company. Based in Opole, Poland, he’s a busy and successful leader of photography workshops, an ambassador for Canon EMEA and has won many accolades. But it was patience that got him to this point in his career.
Paweł’s first camera was compact enough to take on fishing trips, and he first started taking landscape photographs on fishing trips with his grandfather in 2007. A Canon EOS 350D came along the next year, allowing Paweł to take his new hobby seriously and start entering competitions. It was in 2013, when Paweł had moved onto the Canon EOS 50D that he won the Panoramic category of the Sony World Photography Awards in 2013.
