My Photo scholarship 2011 entry

Finland | Friday, November 4, 2011 | 5 photos

I am contacting you in regards to the travel photography scholarship opportunity posted on your site. I have found this competition very interesting because of the great experience that I will be able to have next to Jason Edwards –whose work is familiar to me- if I am the one to travel to South Africa and also because of the things that I am sure I will learn even though we will spend together a only a few days. I would like to be chosen for many reasons, one being having as many motives as I can in order to increase my photographic work and practice something I do in a daily basis for the last 5 years of my life. It is also very important for me to have the chance to collaborate and get in contact with a professional in the field of photography, and Jason Edwards is someone I admire for his job in National Geographic. Furthermore, I hope that I will have the chance to visit Africa, a continent that I have never seen before and from the things I have red about Kruger National Park and Cape Town I know that they will attract me a lot in a new photographic way. In addition to all this I wish that I will have the opportunity to travel and photograph new places and situations. Thank you in advance for your time. I am really looking forward for having some fun and taking some really great pictures.
