My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited: Washington DC
USA | Thursday, July 4, 2013 | 5 photos
I love how pictures share stories. One image can convey meaning and elicit emotion more than any Oscar-winning film performance. They have defined more generations than speeches and created more calls for action than protest songs. Maybe that's why I love them so. I love to take pictures, and I love the process of taking pictures. I'm not afraid of the lengths I may take in getting that shot; leaning over the edge or standing in the middle of a river would only be normal for me. That fearlessness is not normal for me; usually I'm pretty composed. But, when there is a story to tell, I'm ready for whatever lengths I have to take to get that great shot. "Whatever lengths" would also reference where I want to go with my photography: I want to photograph the world. I want to show people what I see, and I want to tell people a story: one about a beautiful world, ready to be explored and enjoyed by all.
