My Photo scholarship 2011 entry

Worldwide | Tuesday, November 8, 2011 | 4 photos

I’m Anthony Tiu, 32, from Philippines dream to travel the world, adventurous, ready to learn, self-determined and here for God’s purpose.

Travel and photography are my hobbies and interest, I take time to experience, see, hear, feel and taste the fullness of life in my own little way, indeed a very expensive activity but whatever monetary investment and time sacrifice it’s worth it, priceless!

When I photograph I feel God’s love and His presence. My body longs for it, it elevates my mood for better, lift my spirits, lessen my stress and ignite my strong desire to become a better photographer, so I put a lot of time and effort into improving my photographic eye. I take time to provide enticing and aspirational images to bring fulfilment and joy to me and to others who see my photograph.

This scholarship is a rare opportunity to make my life more interesting, give myself a chance to grow, fulfil my dreams, develop my confidence, gain friends, my stepping stone to success, to have a first-hand encounters with the world, the world the way it is, not the way I imagine it, because being there is a different story. And not only discover new places, but for me to discover what I would become after being affected by experience.

Whatever I experience and learn is something I will definitely share and inspire people, so that when I look in my life I have moments in which I’m proud off.
