I decided to work on the culture of North Carolinian barbecue, as it has become one of the strongest symbols I have associated with the state of North Carolina where I have lived for almost ten years. Throughout the semester, the project has given me a tremendous experience as I travelled from Chapel Hill to a more distant area of Eastern North Carolina with my camera and recorder. It even gave me some bitter pride as I visited rural areas for my final spring break while others would spend their times in exotic places like Cancun or London. I believed my choice had set me apart and made me prouder than those who I would normally have envied. Next two photographs were taken for personal desire to horn my skills. I wished to engage in all possible opportunities I can have with photography. Through this scholarship, I wish to enhance my ability in the field of photography, but also fill in my desire to broaden my experience to witness the world I have never ventured to. I am aware of the high reputation that National Geographic Channel and WorldNomads carry. I hope you will give me the privilege of continuing my dream at your fine institution. https://journals.worldnomads.com/stragedream/photos/29891/Worldwide/My-Photo-scholarship-2011-entry Travel Worldwide stragedream https://journals.worldnomads.com/stragedream/photos/29891/Worldwide/My-Photo-scholarship-2011-entry#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/stragedream/photos/29891/Worldwide/My-Photo-scholarship-2011-entry Fri, 9 Sep 2011 13:06:53 GMT 0
