Travel Photography Scholarship 2012 - Oman

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Canada | Tuesday, January 15, 2013 | 5 photos

I am a vivid dreamer. A person who would dream about being the lead of Phantom of the Opera strapped to wires in an elementary school play to being stranded in a cargo port chased by strange men. Despite its randomness, dreaming is my way of inspiration and laying out my ideas in a limitless realm. However, it is to some extent constraint to what I know. I haven't been outside of Canada. I want to experience the world. Photography becomes the perfect medium for me both for experience and perspectives.

Photography is like the thesis of an essay - simple and subjected to the writer's perspective. Like the infamous phrase, "Capture a Kodak moment," I want a picture that tells a story. The exciting aspect is the multitude of perspectives I could use to narrate using photography. I like to put myself in different people's shoes and see from their eyes. With photography I am also able to capture and convey them. This opportunity provides the perfect time for me to hone my skills but also to give people a different spin on what they commonly see.
