Peaks of Europe is not a traditional landscape photography book. It’s the result of a 5-month adventure across 17 countries told through the lens of a European travel photographer who took 29 years to finally explore the continent where he was born. Peaks of Europe has been designed for a specific purpose: telling the story of a 5-month road trip and what it takes to be living out of a car for several months, with all the good and bad moments. For this project, Johan Lolos wasn’t just documenting the landscapes. This book features a series of photos with a focus on the storytelling as much as the imagery. At the end, the people he met were what he remembered most. From the Arctic island of Spitsbergen in the Svalbard archipelago, to Greece’s largest island where Lolos walked in the footsteps of his ancestors in Crete, Peaks of Europe showcases the large variety of landscapes that makes Europe so diverse and unique, but not only. As a travel photographer with a fascination for human interactions, he also tried to portray different cultures through all the people he met during his journey. Johan Lolos is a Belgian-born self-taught travel photographer with a passion for the outdoors and the wilderness. His images have been published in, among others, Mashable, National Geographic Travel, Outside Magazine and The Huffington Post. In the summer of 2017, Johan completed a 5month road trip around Europe, a personal project named Peaks of Europe, with the support of many sponsors. In 5 months, he travelled more than 40,000 km across 17 countries.
