My Scholarship entry - The Colosseum

Peru | Friday, November 21, 2014 | 5 photos

For the last few years I have been challenging borders, traveling the world, meeting its inhabitants. I have a passion for photography, but also for our planet. I no longer see countries or political divisions. I see one world. I see people, living through their traditions and customs in incredible or sometimes hostile natural environments. My mission is to share this with the world. Show the power and beauty of our planet's diversity.

I believe I should be chosen for this opportunity because I know I will be able to get wonderful results from it. With Jason Edwards' support and experience I will be able to go further and deeper into one of the most beautiful and essential parts of the world . I have traveled through the Andean Mountains and the Amazon Rain Forest before and know that this opportunity would allow me to learn from the best and get much closer to the wildlife, biodiversity and communities in the area before it is too late. Hopefully, if enough photographers, documentary makers, and publications continue to raise awareness, wonder and inspire people with their work we will be able to slow down the destruction of the area.
