Closing Sale

Washington, D.C.--Candida's World of Books, 1541 14th St. NW, will be closing its doors. It makes me very sad. Not only because I work there but also because I am a personal friend of Candida's. I have seen how much love, work and effort she has put into the store during these last four years. The bookstore became the neighborhood bookstore, and a reference for any travel book. Guides to Africa, Europe, Asia, America or any place on the globe could be found there. I just have to say, "Thank you, Candida," for all you have given us and taught us.

Oh no! Really sorry to hear that. It's a loss to the neighborhood. Any specific reason why?

Luis Gomez Photos

I am a freelance photographer and photojournalist who moved to Washington, D.C., in 2003 from Caracas, Venezuela. During my 15 years as a photographer, I have traveled the world collecting images for work and pleasure. I have taken photographs throughout the Americas, Europe and Australia, focusing on cityscapes and architecture as well as the simplicity of landscapes and people.

I studied architecture at the University of Tennessee and then returned to Venezuela to earn a B.A. degree in communications from Universidad Católica Andrés Bello in Caracas.
I was a photographer and photo editor for publishing companies while doing freelance work for local and international media outlets.

I was born to a Venezuelan mother and a Belize-American father, some of my earliest memories are of hurrying through airport terminals with a camera around my neck. I was raised in Brazil and Venezuela, and I am fluent in Spanish and proficient in Portuguese.
