My Scholarship entry - Sunny Afternoon
USA | Monday, November 24, 2014 | 5 photos
You learn something new every day. This mantra is how I live my life, I love meeting new people and learning new things. I am passionate about expanding on what I already know to make and experience something amazing, which translates to my photography and travelling.
I have backpacked around the world on and off for a total of 21 months and South America is where I rediscovered my passion for photography. I was in total awe of the beauty that surrounded me, I wanted to capture it to share with the world and I knew then I wanted to change my career path.
On returning from my travels I looked into how to work for National Geographic as it is my dream to be a travel photographer. So I enrolled in a part time online photography degree (I work full time), I am on my 3rd module but I know and feel that I still have a really long way to go.
National Geographic has always inspired me to look beyond the norm and explore different emotions and elations. I know this scholarship would be amazingly beneficial to me, it would enhance my life and my photography. I want to inspire people with my images and show a different viewpoint of the world, I would be truly humbled and elated to win.
