Life of a Maroc

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Morocco | Monday, January 14, 2013 | 5 photos

I am married for 10 years and a father of a beautiful 8 year old daughter. I am currently working in an Architectural Company since I graduated. I am a self-taught avid photographer who loves to travel and take part in photo competition. Managing time between work, families and hobby is not easy but I have done a good job to satisfy people around me. Most people whom I knew when they traveled they will always go shopping and took pictures of interesting places as a memento. But for me other than taking beautiful pictures, I will also try to get “behind the scene” wherever I can. Wanting to learn about their culture and the way they live daily is not that as simple as I thought. There was a time when I was hurled by stones from young children while taking their photos in Jordan and some demanded money from me. I guessed most photographers might came across the same experienced as me. What about you guys from Nat Geo? By participating in this competition, it will give me the opportunity to learn from the professionals the way they looked at their view finder and how will they interact with peoples. I hope the experience which money can’t buy will take my photography to another level.
