The beauty of a semi-desert area https://journals.worldnomads.com/karoo/ Mon, 13 Apr 2026 14:57:25 GMT World Nomads Adventures I love to travel, see new places, capturing these places I was privileged to experience, and then share these with others. I studied tourism, worked in the industry but missed being creative, so I went back and studied visual communication. I came to live in the Karoo for its spectacular colour display at sunsets, which makes for breath taking moments to capture. I know my photos need some improvement to make them more professional, but with guidance I will get there. I’m a practical person and learn better when someone show me where my mistakes is and how to do it better. I live in a remote area and there are no real photographers with whom I can go out on a photo session to share my passion and to learn from. Most people around here want to come with me to a photo session to learn from me, but when I tell them to meet me before sunrise, their enthusiasm disappears. I’m very critical on myself, and don’t like it to waste my time on something I know will not work. But I know that, with the right guidance from experienced photographers, I can take brilliant photos. It would be dream come true, to make an income of my two passions, seeing new places and photography. https://journals.worldnomads.com/karoo/photos/42494/South-Africa/My-Scholarship-entry-The-Beauty-of-a-semi-desert-area Travel South Africa karoo https://journals.worldnomads.com/karoo/photos/42494/South-Africa/My-Scholarship-entry-The-Beauty-of-a-semi-desert-area#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/karoo/photos/42494/South-Africa/My-Scholarship-entry-The-Beauty-of-a-semi-desert-area Tue, 2 Jul 2013 23:45:00 GMT 0
