The judges' panel for the 2010 Red Bull Illume Image Quest is growing steadily as 31 judges have now confirmed their participation in the world’s most spectacular action and adventure sports photography contest.

Among the newly confirmed judges are some of the world’s most renowned photo editors from publications such as Photo (France) or Outside Magazine (USA). With diverse backgrounds and expertise, what unites these experts in photography is their passion for outstanding pictures and their excitement to participate in this year’s Red Bull Illume.
