About This Blog
Luis Gomez PhotosI 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.

There is an enormous amount in this picture, despite the amount of space taken by open water. I find my emotional reaction interesting too. Idiosyncratic, I realise but, being a dweller-near-the-sea, the land on the other side makes me feel trapped so I end up feeling restless rather than restful when I see it.
Looks like a wonderful place to sit!
Did you happen to see a huge white hospital ship with a big red cross on it?
I also enjoy sitting on the shore looking out to the sea. The waves seem to carry any worries away.
It looks like you're getting some wonderful weather.
The next time I go to Santa monica or Venice maybe I'll try to just sit and watch the ocean for awhile.
Me too- I feel at peace when I am by the sea. A lovley CA shot.
Nice day for that sort of thing.
Your image says relaxation in a way that only the West Coast can say it. Wonderful Luis!
I wish that was me.
Me encanta Luis. Bellísima
It's one of my favorite things also Luis, beautiful shadow shot.
Sí, invita a relajarse y hacer un alto en el camino.
I like too :)
Love this picture and I would like to post it in my benches blog!
Triste como una bicicleta mirando el mar...

In Dutch there is just one word for this..

Very nice, Luis. makes me wish I was there as well.
Blue for the soul.
Please have a good Wednesday.
Beautiful silhouette!
Siempre hay un momento para la paz y la tranquilidad, bonita imagen.
Terrific shot.
Me gusta el ambiente
It's so peaceful to do that--I never find that peace because I never have time. I love when the sunlight dances like mirrors on the water.
