Mt. Everest

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Nepal | Thursday, January 3, 2013 | 5 photos

My name is Janatan Ginting, 23 years old male from Indonesia. I'm still a student in an University in Bandung, West Java. In 2008 I joined an outdoor sport’s organization in my university. There, I have learned about many things. One of them of course about photography. In 2010, I was selected to be one of the lucky person to join the 7 summits team to climb 7 highest mountain in 7 continental. I take responsibility to preparate about photo documentation. Personally, I didn’t have many experience about photography before. But in this expedition we try to do the best about this expedition. Over time I take photo and did evaluation together with the team.
After finished my school, I have planned to work as a professional photographer, like outdoor journalist photographer. Therefore, I want to get the knowledge how to make a good photo. I hope I can win this travel scholarship, because experience that learned from skillful photographer like Jason Edwards can upgrade my skill and technique photography. So, it will increase my confidence about making a good photo. Why I should win this scholarship is because I think I have high willingness to learned things that I love.
