Vietnam At A Glance

My Photo scholarship 2010 entry

Vietnam | Monday, August 9, 2010 | 5 photos

At eighteen years of age I already have the passion and determination to become a independently successful and inspirational photographer who can capture a single moment and make it tell a thousand words. I have gone throughout my life treasuring each moment, every simple beauty and every breathtaking experience. I do this throughout the techniques in my photography, or will be doing with my photography in the near future. Every photo I take is something that I analyse and fall in love with; the colours, the textures, the people, their character and so much more. I tell a story, because what kind of photographer wants to just take a meaningless photograph? Defiantly not me. Nature keeps me real and open minded; it is what i love more than anything in the world. The simple beauties we have around us are truly remarkable and to capture a breathtaking scenic photograph is one thing that can lift my spirits up. It is something i want to begin, to know and to learn the techniques and skills you need to do this perfectly. I recently traveled to Vietnam and will be so again next year. And I discovered the amazing beauties there is of a complete new country with so many things I have never set my eyes on. This is why my camera never left my hand and why i came home with 500 different photographs because I was so stunned of the amazing photos one can take when inspired. I’m young; and ready to start to become an inspiration and dedicated photographer. Like a mountain itself; i will start from the bottom, overcome its obstacles to climb to the top; to reach my ultimate dream.

I beleive i deserve to win because I am inexperienced yet capable enough to be 100% determined and passionate enough to reach my ultimate potential and learn and observe from someone who has been in the business for years. I keen to learn, and shortly, i want to learn asap.
