My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Cook Islands | Monday, June 17, 2013 | 4 photos

Hello. My name is Nate, and I have two strengths. Making pictures & writing.

With your help, I can make these even stronger, and better.

My Dad put his Pentax K1000 in my hands when I was a teenager. It was this act that revealed my first strength. The passion he ignited with that camera made me realize that what I had in my hands was special. Not the instrument itself, but the method with which to communicate to the world.

My grasp of written language is my second strength. An ability to alight entire new worlds to people who haven't imagined them before. To be a storyteller. That I have a way of saying things that I can share with others, and that those words can matter.

I'm organised, thoughtful, fun, and can apply a swiss-army-knife & duct tape solution to problems. I will be a credit to you & your organisation. I look forward to learning more, and becoming a better, stronger person, & photojournalist.

As with many things in life, it's the fire of passion & self-motivation that start a journey. With your help, I can transform that fire into a brilliant career. I will commit everything to this opportunity.

Thank you for your time, and your consideration.
