My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Australia | Thursday, January 10, 2013 | 5 photos

I have always wanted to be an artist, painting and drawing, I even got into drama at one stage. Though at the end of the day, I loved my camera. Photography really allows me to express myself both emotionally and creatively, and I love knowing that I still have so much to learn. I love to experiment and try new things, take that extra step or climb that little hirer to get a different perspective. I don’t realize the time when I’m shooting. I get so lost in the moment, so caught up with all the different possibilities that nothing else matters. I believe there is always more to a story than what is on the surface, and will look beyond the ugly to find beauty.

Along with photography my passion is to travel the world. I want to see it all and experience the array of cultures and environments it offers, photographing my journeys along the way.

I believe that to be a travel photographer would fulfill both my dreams, and I am willing to push myself to all extremes to succeed. This experience would not only be life changing but a massive stepping-stone towards my goal. It would open up different paths, and will help me become the best travel photographer I can be.
