Switzerland | Thursday, July 4, 2013 | 5 photos

My name is Cornelia Burkhard,I'm 30 years old and work in a travel agency.Since I was 19,I travelled many countries as a Backpacker.I choose this kind of travelling, because it enables me,to get to learn many people,land and cultures.Being an open minded person, I find no difficulty in doing so.Photography is a passion of mine.I love to keep best remembrances on photo. Been able to shoot different motives of all kinds,gives me much satisfaction.It's fantastic to present my photography,which fascinate and captures others of my passion.
For example:Village Kids in Tanzania,who where laughing, but in the same time you could see the sadness in their eyes.It was remarkable seeing the gigantic,light blue Glaciers in Patagonia or feeling the aboriginal spirit in the australian Outback,as I shot the famous Ayers Rock.Photographing more than one pictures drives me on,because you always can focus the subjects in a different angle or in a better light.I hope to make my passion as a travel photographer one day to my daily profession.It would be the perfect opportunity to learn and work with a mentor such as Jason Edwards.His Know-how will inspire me to work harder.Learning by doing.
