The title of this project by Jakub Polomski is ‘2504m’, it stands for the highest point of the Grossglockner High Alpine Road (Hochtor Pass). Grossglockner road is one of the main attractions of Austrian Alps. All pictures in this project were taken by Jakub around the road in one August afternoon, enjoy!

For me photography means travels, light and time. I was born in 1985, but the photography has started interesting me when I was 20 years old. Inspired by photos which I saw in one of the issues of National Geographic, I borrowed DSLR from a friend and then it began… Since 2007, I have been awarded with several prizes and commendations in various photography contests. However by far the most important for me is National Geographic Poland statuette gained for the first place in category “Polish Landscape” in 2010. – Jakub Polomski
