My Scholarship entry - A little bit about South Africa in 2014

South Africa | Monday, November 24, 2014 | 5 photos

I am a young journalist who loves specially the social side of journalism and who has a strong adventurous spirit.
I work in a community newspaper and just photograph during the weekends for small events and simple essays. I can't say that I earn money with this activity. My equipment is not expensive, but I make nice pictures because I have passion, I try to get close as much as I can of the object and try to get its essence.
I definetly want to grow my photographic knowledge and skills, and want to build a career in travel photography.
Few month ago I did an internship in a television from South Africa (based in Cape Town) and made some great pictures from that reality. I also made two videos for a television from my hometown. It was a big challenge and such a nice professional experience. My life is moved by challenges - that's why to be in the Amazon with Jason Edwards for sure will be an unforgettable time! I will learn a lot, confirm my passion for adventure journalism and do my best to pass on the knowledges.
