Two Weeks in Oman

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Oman | Sunday, January 13, 2013 | 4 photos

I genuinely can't remember a time in my life when I wasn't shooting pictures. From elementary school through high school, I was known for my photos, and there was no greater feeling than that. I was trapped in my own little world, and people were always dying to be a part of it. I now go to a community college and I work constantly to save up for school and to be able to buy the equipment I need to do what I love to do. I shoot constantly, and going nowhere with my photography isn't an option for me.

I don't aspire to get famous with my photos, but i hope to someday change people's lives with the pictures that I've taken. I want to show people a world they didn't know existed. I've never in my life gotten an opportunity like this one, and I can honestly say that if by some stroke of luck I am chosen, I won't be letting anyone down. I am completely self taught, and it would be such a dream to really learn everything I could possibly know about photography from someone I know I could relate to. I have drive, ambition, creativity, I am adventurous, thirsty for knowledge, and I can honestly say I live and breathe photography.
