Breathtaking winners of the Panoramic Photography Awards

Each year, thousands of professional and amateur photographers from around the globe submit their entries to the annual Epson International Pano Awards.

The 2021 competition saw 5,378 entries from photographers in 97 countries, all showcasing breathtaking sites from around the world.

From the thousands of entries, American photographer Joshua Hermann was declared the overall winner with his eerie shot of the swamplands of Louisiana.

Competition curator David Evans was thrilled with the results of the 2021 entries, after the pandemic damped last year’s competition.

He said, “We thought 2020 was a challenging year, but 2021 took things to a whole new level. That said, despite the pandemic and so many other challenges the entries this year were nothing short of amazing.”

“We are, yet again, overwhelmed with the level of support from entrants and sponsors, especially Epson, and we thank you all so very much and also congratulate all this year’s winners and entrants.”
