Nocturnal Scenes

My name is Luis Miguel Lopez. I was born in Lowell Mass to Puerto Rican Parent. At a young age, I developed a passion for TV shows, particularly documentaries. I was captivated by the world around me, leading me to indulge in numerous nature programs. In the year 2000, I seized the opportunity to finance my college education and enrolled at the New England Institute of Technology to study video and radio production. Despite obtaining my degree, I spent a decade without utilizing it until I discovered the Lowell Telecommunication Center. This remarkable place not only allowed me to refresh my college knowledge but also exposed me to various community projects that contributed to my growth as a producer. Over the years, the Lowell Telecommunication Center has honored me with several awards, and in 2019 I was a finalist at the Massachusetts Creator Awards from MassAcess for Gill Knows which is an animation show for the LPS Media outlets.

A few months after the pandemic-induced lockdown, I found myself immersed in the world of photography. Setting a personal goal, I dedicated six months to improving my skills, with the condition that if I didn't witness any progress within that timeframe, I would cease my pursuit. However, as I saw significant improvement, I never looked back.
As an active member of Viewbug, a photography-focused social media platform, I've been presented with numerous opportunities to participate in photography contests and challenges. Through these engagements, my photography work has garnered over 1000 "top of the class" recognitions, awarded to photos within the top 30 percentile of votes. Many of my images have received multiple accolades for their exceptional placement.

I feel truly fortunate to have emerged as the winner of various contests and various challenges, while also amassing an impressive collection of 36 community awards.
