The Seafaring Life in Cádiz https://journals.worldnomads.com/kelvinhb/ Fri, 1 May 2026 12:57:47 GMT World Nomads Adventures As a climate scientist, my primary obsession is to understand the world around me, how it works, and how it changes. Photography allows me to do artistically what my science accomplishes academically – it lets me distill experiences to their essence, lets me take what I see and find the best expression of its truth. I have practiced photography for nearly a decade now, since I first took an SLR to the zoo in my hometown of Seattle. Since then, I’ve always kept a camera close, as I pursued studies in chemistry and moved to Caltech, where I just finished my first year toward a PhD in atmospheric chemistry. I hope someday to combine my scientific and artistic passions in a career communicating climate change to the public. This trip to Greenland, where the effects of climate change are felt more strongly than anywhere else on earth, would afford me a perfect occasion to combine my scientific and artistic pursuits. I would apply my multifaceted expertise to this incredible opportunity to compile a photographic story of how the earth’s warming impacts both the landscape and people of Greenland, and I would learn a great deal about both photography and the climate in the process. https://journals.worldnomads.com/kelvinhb/photos/42930/Spain/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Travel Spain kelvinhb https://journals.worldnomads.com/kelvinhb/photos/42930/Spain/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/kelvinhb/photos/42930/Spain/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Thu, 4 Jul 2013 15:53:00 GMT 0
