Photographer Spotlight John G. Lomba
http://www.jglomba.com “There is a mysterious appealing mystical quality about the world’s oceans and waterways which captivates many a sailor and land-lubber alike. I have been fortunate enough to have been both. But not until recent times have I been able to make the association to incorporate what I see with photography. That was when I realized that these two subjects could work well together in perfect harmony. My name is John Lomba, and I have been around the ocean and ships for most of my life. It all started out as being the son of an immigrant commercial fisherman. Since then, I have since sailed as a licensed officer on various commercial ships and now more recently worked the docks and shore-side aspect of the maritime industry. I appreciate the fact that most ships/vessels are design for function over form – if you will. I see more than just the rusty tanker at anchor or a fully laden container heading out of New York harbor, or working tugboat. Given the right circumstances in my mind’s eye they transform into moving artwork. Sometime I am fortunate enough to capture the perfect moment through photography. I hope some of my images have the same effect on you as they do me.”
