Algonquin: the real Canada

My Scholarship entry - The beauty of Autumn

Canada | Monday, November 10, 2014 | flickr photos

For the last 5 years, I have been an avid traveller and have taken up any job available (pulling pints, fruit farming, chicken factory...) to allow me to travel the globe. I have resided in the UK, Asia and Australia, and am currently living in Toronto - all to help me grow and expand as a photographer - my one true passion.

I have learnt so much from volunteering as a camera assistant at newspapers, blagging entry to any event I can, and simply taking pictures at every opportunity. I am always learning and looking to improve - whether this be from friends, other photographers or everyday situations. However believe I have really hit my stride in the past year, capturing urban and wilderness snots that I believe are some of my best, which has confirmed to me that this is the only job I want to do; Travel photography.

I can't think of a better opportunity to learn about and improve from then to work alongside a true professional with years of experience. I love working on location and have no problem getting my hands dirty. To be considered for this Scholarship would be life changing.
