My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Turkey | Monday, January 14, 2013 | 4 photos

Hello, my name is Nadia and I'm 29 years old. After dedicating the last 10 years of my life to come into contact with different kind of communities, people and places because of my work as a psychologist, I realized more and more that would be unfair to keep only for me those fascinating experiences. With this purpose, the fotography appeared as the perfect hobby for me since 2 years ago when I started to study it by myself, but now I feel that I'm capable to do more with it. I want to represent a human and cultural sensitive point of view in my pictures. It doesn't matter if I'm in my neighborhood or 10000 kilometers away from home, I believe photography is a powerful way of connection between cultures and people by feelings. For reaching my goal, I want to learn how to turn it into an instrument of work, improving the technique of photography so I can use it when I'm travelling, working as a psychologist in the fieldwork, when I'm in a mission or when I'm only on vacations. This scholarship will be the turning point to learn how to do that.
