Nervous Journey

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Indonesia | Wednesday, January 2, 2013 | flickr photos



Everything was begun two years ago. I was having a trip with my very first pocket camera which I bought from a good friend of mine when suddenly I fell in love with photography.

I thought that capturing special moments on earth and then writing something about it based on my own point of view would be fun as it still happens now.

In May 2012, I bought myself a DSLR camera for my 34th birthday, completed with some of its accessories. It was much like a form of love and promise of mine to photography as I wanted to dedicate a part of my life to it, even though I would get no financial benefit from it.

I think that having a DSLR is a commitment. It can possibly be as strong as a marriage. Unlike using a pocket camera, there are so many features of it and techniques that I have to learn. Honestly, I’m still nervous using a DSLR sometimes, just like having a date with a girl. But my feelings and intuitions have guided me doing the right things. I just let everything flow as much as I can enjoy.

Finally, I hope I can improve my photography skills through this program, because I think photography depends not only on intuitions and feelings, but also good and proper techniques.
