I consider myself an autodidact and one of the reasons I want to win the scholarship is because this is an opportunity to have a mentor, which I haven't had yet. I'm 31 years old. I don't live of photography and I'm not a professional yet. But I'm ready to be one and to be the best. I'm willing to learn and enjoy the experience. I know this is a once in a lifetime opportunity and I am ready to travel. And recently, I think I deserve this because when I saw the server crashed, I panicked. I took this pictures a few months ago at a very known hospital in my country for treating children with disabilities of families with little means of support. I was looking for a theme for a personal project and I ended up there. As I was taking pictures and knowing the patients, one day I met Maria and her daughter Carmencita. She was very kind and I she started to tell me about her situation. She was from other city and had to come to Lima, leaving her husband and her 2 years old son, to take Carmencita to the hospital because an illness in her foot didn't let her walk. I met Maria and Carmencita two days before the surgery. I spend many time with them, even in the surgery, but this pictures show the time Carmencita and her mother spent in a shelter for two months, while continuing their checks. Now they are in their hometown, but returning soon to Carmencita therapy. p.g.l. - Full Name Pedro Gonzales Lavayen - Email Address pedrogl@hotmail.com - Phone Number 511 2255043 - Date of Birth 19/06/80 - Country of Residence Perú - Username pedrogl https://journals.worldnomads.com/pedrogl/photos/32407/Peru/My-Photo-scholarship-2011-entry Travel Peru pedrogl https://journals.worldnomads.com/pedrogl/photos/32407/Peru/My-Photo-scholarship-2011-entry#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/pedrogl/photos/32407/Peru/My-Photo-scholarship-2011-entry Tue, 8 Nov 2011 15:00:00 GMT 0 A walk through Havana https://journals.worldnomads.com/pedrogl/photos/29079/Peru/La-Habana Travel Peru pedrogl https://journals.worldnomads.com/pedrogl/photos/29079/Peru/La-Habana#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/pedrogl/photos/29079/Peru/La-Habana Fri, 15 Jul 2011 09:49:00 GMT 0
