Life is not always about what you see from the outside. Life is full of stories that are Untold and Hidden. I want to witness those stories of People and Culture. And tell those “Hidden Stories” to the world. As an art, Photography gives me that freedom.

When I learnt the fundamentals of photography 3 years ago, I realized that if I’m creative enough I could give a real meaning to the phrase “A Picture is worth a thousand words.” What you see today is the results of my enthusiasm and dedication to do it to the best of my ability and trying to be the best.

After all my dedication and development, I’m at a point where I seem to be stagnated. With lots of questions and very little answers and moreover with very Little Opportunity and nowhere to go …I’m missing A Catalyst, to take my passion to the next level.

A Catalyst such as this scholarship. A Catalyst, which shows me the missing pieces and Educates me to take great images. A Catalyst that gives me the Opportunity to tell all those “Hidden Stories” to the world. Because in life, (as “Maya Angelou” states) “There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.”
