Blink of an eye

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Mozambique | Monday, June 10, 2013 | 5 photos

My name is Deralene Montagner, i am twenty three years of age and yes i am female if the very feminine name didn't give it away:)
The very day i knew this is what i was going to do I realized i had to buy a camera, the only thing i had of "value" was a scooter (motor), so i sold it to buy a very basic entry level camera. Once i started taking pictures i found that there is so much more it than an image. I would somehow find transport to various places taking all sorts of shots. Besides traveling i do not see myself doing anything else but photography.
You can buy equipment and buy fame but passion, creativity and a great eye is priceless and i might not have the fame (doesn't appeal to me), i might not have the best equipment, but passion, creativity and a sharp eye are the three things you cannot take away from me.
I'm spontaneous, adventurous, and determined in all i do! I jump at the first opportunity to learn more and be more and offer more. This opportunity is more than winning and being able to travel! I know by being apart of something this amazing is only the beginning to what we do, this would be an amazing chapter in this short life we've been given to do something.
