Angkor and Tourism https://journals.worldnomads.com/davefranz/ Thu, 9 Apr 2026 20:31:28 GMT World Nomads Adventures I’m a chemist turned photographer that loves traveling and appreciates cultural diversity. I switched from chemistry to photography for a new challenge. I enjoy the challenge of freelance photography work by improving my skills as a photographer and building a business. I am a self taught photographer and constantly driven to learn as much as possible through classes, studying the work of photographers, and assisting photographers. From the scholarship I hope to learn how to improve my photographic story telling skills and communicate better with the viewer. I would also like to learn Jason’s thought process for an assignment from beginning to end, including: brainstorming and research prior to going in the field, photographing the assignment, to final presentation of the story. Everything I learn from the scholarship I hope to contribute back to the photography non-profit I volunteer for. The non-profit provides the community with photography classes and resources. I can see myself giving back to the community by teaching a class or mentoring high school students utilizing photography as a creativity outlet. https://journals.worldnomads.com/davefranz/photos/51477/USA/My-Scholarship-entry-Will-tourism-destroy-Angkor Travel USA davefranz https://journals.worldnomads.com/davefranz/photos/51477/USA/My-Scholarship-entry-Will-tourism-destroy-Angkor#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/davefranz/photos/51477/USA/My-Scholarship-entry-Will-tourism-destroy-Angkor Sat, 22 Nov 2014 12:12:00 GMT 0
