A very personal journey https://journals.worldnomads.com/simonwatts/ Fri, 10 Apr 2026 11:01:17 GMT World Nomads Adventures This is a personal interpretation of the project.I want to convey a sense of just how important this opportunity is to me. My intent isn’t to tug heartstrings but to show despite an adverse situation,I was able to use photography to take a positive from a negative. The fact is this event had many other consequences: mental, financial, & personal. These other aspects have been challenging but nothing more than each person has to face. My life disappeared & for a time my environment was very limited.Despite the hard loss of independent freedom I was able to continue recording my observations even though I couldn’t feed my love of actual exploration. This experience has also born in me a new appreciation for life & all its beauty & hard ship. I can’t imagine anything more fulfilling than using photography to explore,empathise with & share what the world has to offer.To show that there is such a diversity of life experience & how others co-exist with their environments & choose to live their lives. I was lucky to have the NHS to repair me & have the opportunity to pursue my desires.I want to use this 2nd chance to good effect & this mentorship would be an incredible start. https://journals.worldnomads.com/simonwatts/photos/41607/United-Kingdom/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Travel United Kingdom simonwatts https://journals.worldnomads.com/simonwatts/photos/41607/United-Kingdom/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/simonwatts/photos/41607/United-Kingdom/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Wed, 19 Jun 2013 00:46:00 GMT 0
