Once upon a camera Beautiful Chaos: an evening at the beach

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Pakistan | Monday, January 14, 2013 | 5 photos

I was only four when I first fellk in love with the coolest thing I had ever seen . It wasn't a toy but a device that could capture a moment in time.
I grew up in awe of NG, spending summers reading photography books from the library. I was able to teach myself the basics .
Currently, I am an owner of a Canon Rebel XS, a basic DSLR that has allowed me to hone my skills & fuel this life-long hobby.
I enjoy taking pictures of people & places the most, usually during events or when I am travelling. I love catching my subjects' when they are not looking.
I lack the technical advanced skills as my photos could be better in composure & image-quality. I want to learn how to take better pictures, pictures that take your breath away. I want to go further with this passion of mine. I want to do what scares me. With proper guidance this is possible. This contest is a lifetime opportunity to learn from the best.
I hope to contribute to the greater community through my photography. Like a simple smile it can connect people & different experiences. I hope these images will allow me to get my voice in the world & be part of a greater discussion.
