My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

United Kingdom | Thursday, January 3, 2013 | 5 photos

My name is Huan Zhang and I'm 22. I came from China but I'm currently living in the UK pursuing my Master's degree in translation. I will come back to China in January 2013.

Though my major has nothing to do with photography but it has always been my dream to be a professional photographer. I fell in love with photography when I was a little girl under the influence of my father. He's not a professional neither, but it was him who taught me to look at the world with my own eyes and to keep exploring it whenever I could. As I grow older, I begin to realize the unbelievable diversity of the world which is the most precious gift for all of us. I used to know the saying "Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer", now I know it for sure.

Photography makes it possible for me to capture the moment I experienced and also let me share it with the others. I've been trying to create picture that gives people the feeling that they are experiencing the moment by themselves. The joy and happiness photography gives me is beyond words and description. I regard myself being lucky enough to find the love of my life and I am now trying to dedicate my whole life to it.
