Man's unending quest to conquer Nature

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

India | Friday, July 5, 2013 | 4 photos

I'm Apoorv a nature lover, climate change activist and travel enthusiast from India. I love sustainability to the core

I'm currently working with an energy major of my country. Working here has given me a better idea about the pressures that the traditional development model puts over the existing natural resources and the current situation, at least in my country is deeply saddening

I began photography as a hobby half a year back, not to win any competitions but to master the art of capturing a moment (in my case nature at its resplendent best) and emotions in the best way possible and convey the same to my peers and keep it there for nostalgia

Through my photographs I want to raise awareness about how beautiful and fragile our planet is and it is for this reason I am thoroughly enthused about this scholarship

As mentioned I'm new to this field therefore the learnings provided by a mentor as awesome as Jason would be invaluable to me! Also getting a chance to experience and photograph a breathtakingly beautiful place like Greenland through my eyes would be a great opportunity neigh a privilege and would serve endlessly to my cause for spreading awareness about climate change.
