Solo footsteps

My Photo scholarship 2011 entry

Worldwide | Tuesday, August 30, 2011 | 5 photos

These photos were taken while I backpacked alone for the first time to Spain. I had no guidebooks whatsoever, only a few maps and thankfully, a little knowledge of the language. These photos were a way of expressing my independence and curiosity through what I observed during my journey. My journey started in Barcelona, then I was off to Valencia, Malaga, Granada, Sevilla, Cordoba, Toledo and my backpacking trip finally ended in Madrid.

I think I should be chosen because I am a very keen learner and I would very much like to explore and hopefully, expand my knowledge in photography. Also, I believe I should be chosen because I am quite a curious person with a thirst for adventure. I believe that travelling and photography go hand-in-hand, and I would appreciate the opportunity to do just that through this scholarship.
