My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Philippines | Sunday, January 13, 2013 | 5 photos

I am a civil engineer and photography is my hobby. I guess my passion for photography started when I and my friends started travelling. And I told myself, photography is for me. I believe that pictures don't just capture, but they preserve emotions and memories which for me if very important. I really like it when I see a picture and that pictures makes me smile, sad, get angry and other emotions. One thing that I really look forward to right now, is on how I can merge my profession and photography. Furthermore I know that photography can bring me to various places, meet new people, learn other cultures, which for me is very important.
On the other hand, I should be chosen because aside from the fact that there are so many things I can learn from Sir Jason Edwards, I am excited to learn Oman's culture and people. See how Oman's culture differs from ours because I believe that photos are great tool to show one's culture and belief whether good or bad in the eyes of others. I will definitely work very hard to give National Geographic quality photos that will inform the world how Oman is as a country.
I really believe that photos are great tool to inform people of how diverse our world is.
