My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

United Kingdom | Friday, July 5, 2013 | 5 photos

My name is Ross Young and i am currently studying photography at the University of Ulster Belfast, and approaching my final year. I am originally from Northern Ireland, County Down and have lived here all my life. Since i left school in 2007 i have studied Art and Design in collage but it wasn't until I started my GCSE in photography that i became interested. i then learned that i could apply for a National Diploma in photography which i then pursed and since then i have loved studying everything about the practice. although most of my projects have contactual meanings, I still like to photograph everything but focusing mostly on landscapes and documentary styles. Now that i have reached my final year in university i am looking forward to leaving my course and creating a lengthy career from photography but i am still not sure in which direction to go. i am applying to this scholarship because i feel it is exactly what I'm am looking to do with my life. i have always enjoyed traveling to visit new lands and documenting with my camera. To get a chance to learn from experience and get an understanding of what it would be like to do a job very view get a chance to do excites me a lot.
