Through my camera

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Costa Rica | Friday, July 5, 2013 | 5 photos

I am an Indian citizen currently resident in Ireland.
Photography is a passion, the main medium of communication for me. My fascination for pictures started young. When I take pictures, they allow me to share my vision with the viewer. My ultimate dream is to take photography professionally, taking photos for National Geographic. Everything I know about photography is self-learnt, through youtube, reading, teaching others to learn more myself & clicking away on my camera. I enjoy watching the Nat Geo photography stalwarts in the Nat Geo Live! Series, & hope that one day, I would be able to stand on the same platform.
There is so much variety on Earth! While cultures are gradually bridging closer as the world gets smaller, we are lucky enough today, to still be able to see the differences. Being able to experience a way of life lived by others, seeing nature in all her glory & being able to capture this in photographs so that those unable to or uninclined to travel can still experience it, gives me a joy like no other.
I believe that a burning desire to learn more, from the very best & a desire to see our world the way it actually is, makes me a good choice for this program.
