My Passionate Shots of Canada

My Photo scholarship 2010 entry

Worldwide | Friday, September 3, 2010 | 5 photos

I am an absolutely passionate 18 year old girl currently residing in Australia. My best times that i have spent in the world are when I am traveling around the world taking photos of anything and everything with a keen eye, however, i am particularly fascinated with wildlife! When I found this opportunity i was so ridiculously excited and couldn't stop smiling and thinking about it. I am really fit and love exercise, as I live on large property.

My 5 photos i've chosen are from a trip around Canada last year in winter. I attempt to capture the feeling as if you are truly there looking out upon the mountains or even wandering sneakily through the forests in search of wildlife or anything that I believe must be captured on film. Even the lifestyle of different cultures amazes me but I feel as if I have much to learn (and I want to!!). These photos are close to me because they represent a beautiful moment in time that no one else will ever get. I think this is what drives my passion, to keep finding these moments.

I love these photos and my ultimate goal is to eventually become a widely acclaimed wildlife/nature photographer. I want the chance to experience the world through my camera lens and to make a difference. Whether it be attempting to preserve wildlife, everything natural or even cultures, i'm up for it all.

I hope you will consider me for this totally awesome opportunity!! thanks, Danika Groves.
