Vaishnavi, 15, is studying in 10th grade at DPS MIS. Interested in photography, basketball and art, she is taking part in a photography contest for the first time.
Photography is a hobby for the youngster who wants to learn more about it.
“My family came to Doha in 2004 when I was four years old,” she says.
Vaishnavi’s father works in Qafco and her mother is a teacher in a kindergarten.
Excited at the opportunity to show her photography skills, Vaishnavi is one of the youngest winners of the contest. Her picture – Mosque’s beauty in the sunset – drew much interest from Instagram followers, receiving 239 likes and 128 comments.
