"Where’s Waldo" by Warren Gatling
Winners were announced Oct. 30 for the annual Port of Long Beach PHOTO Program competition and will be exhibited along with all entries in the popular community arts project throughout November at the Long Beach Civic Center’s Port of Long Beach Administration Building.
Featuring distinctive images of the port submitted by 63 amateur and professional photographers, the display is held each fall in collaboration with the Arts Council for Long Beach. The exhibit is open to the public through Nov. 30.
PHOTO Program photographers were selected from a pool of applicants. They attended a daylong workshop given by professional port photographers, and then were presented with the unique opportunity to capture the sights, views and lights of the harbor during a sunrise cruise through the port.
“If you’ve had the chance to see the Port from many angles, as have this year’s PHOTO Program participants, then you know it is a visually dynamic and interesting place,” said Port of Long Beach CEO Mario Cordero. “These images are not just artistically stunning, they’re sharing an inside look at the Port with the community.”
The Arts Council’s panel of judges awarded the top prize of $1,000 to Warren Gatling of Las Vegas for Where’s Waldo, a color image contrasting the height of a sailor reeling in a rope ladder aboard a comparatively massive shipping vessel stacked with cargo containers.
Second place and $600 was awarded to Tim Bryant of Garden Grove for Easy Does It, capturing a head-on view of a ship loaded with multicolored cargo containers as it is towed by a tugboat. Third place and $400 went to Michael Gonzales of Long Beach for Birds that Flock Together, Port Together, delivering a color image of terns gathered on a dock.
Time: 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. weekdays, to Nov. 30, at the, 90802.
