Beholden rivers and lakes

My Scholarship entry - Land of water

Canada | Monday, November 24, 2014 | 4 photos

Polyglot, open-minded, adventure-seeker. Passion: photography & travel. Dream: become a documentary photographer.
As a kid I had a reel every 3 months, our Konica Revio taught me to be selective before the shoot. A Sony DSC-H5 taught me about exposure, shutter speed and aperture. My family got me a Canon 40D when I turned 18, there began my lens collection and photography course. I defend conceptual photography over being a master of technique. A photo that's not a poem isn't interesting.
First trip: Ireland. The powerful green, the fog and the solemnity of the black crows fascinated me. It bored the locals, but amazed me. Travelling offers the possibility to see the world as a newborn through your eyes, then through the eyes of the locals. From the synergy between both views emerges the beauty of good travel photography, the freshness of the 'new' with the meaning it has in its place.
This is a great opportunity to learn from one of the best, reevaluate my skills, and improve my technique. An amazing place to set out on a photography career & an experience to never forget. And not only for me, but for everyone. The mission is to get people to learn what I learn, go on an adventure, have fun and share the dream with me from their homes, through my words and pictures.
