Paris at Night https://journals.worldnomads.com/carlospaillacar/ Thu, 9 Apr 2026 20:15:26 GMT World Nomads Adventures I am a senior at Barry University BFA in photography program. I am a 21 year veteran of the U.S. Coast Guard that decided to go to school after retirement to pursue my passion for photography. Through photograpy I can interact with the world in a therapeutic way to overcome anxiety. I am fluent in Spanish and I have been to Peru this past Summer with my church in a ministry mission to the village of Galilea. I love to make images that bring the realities of life from different cultures and highlight the harmony with nature and the environment. Since I am retired, my goal is to do photography for charitable organizations that would benefit from professional photography to bring awareness to their cause. https://journals.worldnomads.com/carlospaillacar/photos/50606/Peru/Trip-up-the-Ucayali-river-in-Peru Travel Peru carlospaillacar https://journals.worldnomads.com/carlospaillacar/photos/50606/Peru/Trip-up-the-Ucayali-river-in-Peru#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/carlospaillacar/photos/50606/Peru/Trip-up-the-Ucayali-river-in-Peru Thu, 13 Nov 2014 10:11:53 GMT 0 I am a veteran of the Armed Forces of the United States. I retired last year (2012) after 21 years of honorable service to my country. I applied to Barry University Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography to follow my childhood dream of being a photographer. I was denied my application originally for lack of enough credits; I was so mad that I enrolled in summer classes and got 10 credits (3 classes) in a little over a month (with a 4.0 GPA). I was accepted to Barry University and I have remained in the President's List since enrollment. I am the only photo major student that holds a 4.0 GPA over 3 consecutive semesters, I have accumulated 58 credits so far, and I will finish my BFA in photography in 2.5 years rather than 4. I was just the recipient of a scholarship from Barry University where I went to study in France for 3 weeks where I took the images submitted in my work. I enjoy shooting at night because of the technical proficiency and difficulty of getting an image right. https://journals.worldnomads.com/carlospaillacar/photos/42498/France/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Travel France carlospaillacar https://journals.worldnomads.com/carlospaillacar/photos/42498/France/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/carlospaillacar/photos/42498/France/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Tue, 2 Jul 2013 23:55:00 GMT 0
