The soul of Lisbon

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Portugal | Friday, July 5, 2013 | 5 photos

Photography is for me the one true thing that brings me inner peace and trust in what I am to become. What I can honestly tell about my passion is that it came as a genuine discovery of myself, after realizing, in 2009, that I'm not in the right place, therefore deciding to move to a completely different level, leaving my college, moving to another city and focusing on seeing and feeling the world around me through and with the photo camera. I truly believe that I've made the best decision of my life back then and by now, my vision is in a constant cycle of changing, my desire for exploring, feeling and gathering experiences is enormous. What I really hope from this scholarship is to help me move a step forward in succeeding in my trip to becoming a photographer for National Geographic. Why, you may wonder. Well, getting there may take me to see what I'm dreaming about with every photograph I take, with every person I capture, with every moment I seize in my modern camera obscure. What I'm trying to succeed with photography is everything but a cliche. All I try to express through my photographs is based upon human emotions, places and moments.
