How do you know you got a good shot? Recognition – literally. Four previous editions of the Red Bull Illume Image Quest have produced three different winners, and they have been on quite the journey ever since. Read it in their own words; an interview with Fred Mortagne, Chris Burkard and Lorenz Holder!

Need a little inspiration to sit down and sort through your best work? Here it is!

If spending 15 hours slithering through the desert on a three-kilometer long train transporting approximately 84 tons of iron ore across a country sounds like a dream to you, then you’re probably one of two things. Either, you’re ready to be the winner of the Lifestyle Category of the Red Bull Illume Image Quest, or you’re Jody MacDonald.

Thankfully for us, Jody is both! An iconic image with an epic back-story, click below to read the interview!

SanDisk Extreme Team Member Christian Pondella and Will Gadd have been wandering over the world for 20 years, and have ticked off a few adventures – but this trip to climb ice in the Greenland Ice Cap was one of the “coolest adventures I’ve ever been on!” – his words, not ours, and he follow up with a quick “no pun intended!”

With temperatures in constant flux, it's good to know Christian can count on his equipment. Especially his memory cards!
