My Photo scholarship 2011 entry
Worldwide | Thursday, November 3, 2011 | 5 photos
Yeah I would like to win... But greater satisfaction for me would be if I make you interested in Bosnia. This country is beautiful, people, animals, nature and culture are unique... As you can see on first two pictures there is still scars from recent civil war. While I taking them I am standing, belive me or not, on border line between two entinties. You can see beautiful mosque and church, and there is a building spot for new cathedral nearby. It is nice having such a capital city with so many religious and historical buildings, but do we really need new ones when people must live in these ruins? But yet, this city is somekind of big museum. One step in this city literaly means time travel. Third picture is taken in front of modern hotel ,,Europa”. There, you can see reimains of old fort, and clock-tower ,,Sahat-Kula”. All that is part of famous Bash-charshia – there is no living Bosnian who doesn’t know for this marketplace, from period when Otomans claimed this city as its own. And for last two I will say just this - Jewel of Sarajevo, national park ,,Vrelo Bosne” (“Spring of Bosnia”). Breathtaking isnt it? And I would be happy to send you all my photos of this city if you find those interesting... 5 is just not enough.
I think there is no greater joy for photographer, than when he notice that someone enjoys, and more important, understands his work. I want to see all that world can offer me and show others my vision of it. But first, I must learn how.
