My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Philippines | Monday, January 7, 2013 | 5 photos

When I was young i dreamed of becoming a painter for i really love colors but the meager salary of my father could not afford even a single brush much more of the tuition fee for a big family. Still, I did not stop drawing some images using only a piece of cotton tied at the end of a wooden stick as a brush and an expired ink as paint from my grandfather's garbage. My disappointment to fulfill my dreams was turned me to go to some free art exhibits and museums here in our country until the evolution of cellphones with built in camera. Since painting and photography have something to do with images and colors it made me realized to use camera to capture images instead. I am not knowledgeable about photography for I just shoot what only my eyes can see as beautiful and its significance. I have no idea about camera technicalities for i am just using my cellphone in taking pictures but i find it addictive which made me crave for knowledge, deeper and serious knowledge in photography ... and that's the reason why I join in.
