My Scholarship entry - Auckland Scottish Highland Games
New Zealand | Sunday, November 23, 2014 | 5 photos
My name is Martin Wootton, engineer by profession, but photographer by passion. I enjoy all types of photography, but particularly event, sports, wildlife - anything with movement that portrays the moment. I enjoy capturing the expressions of the people concerned telling the emotions involved in their activity. I strive for the "in camera" best possible result, leaving minimal post processing to be done, minor highlights and shadows and small amount of sharpening being the aim.
I love travel and enjoy photographing other nations and cultures when holidays permit. I regularly cover school sports events and have some work published in local papers, as well as school website and newsletters.
Winning this scholarship would give me another opportunity to further my learning and experience a fascinating environment and culture, and hopefully pave the way for future similar expeditions - ultimately more photography less engineering!
