Cape Ann Images: Almost There!!

Why I created this......

Born and raised in Gloucester,Ma fishing gets in your blood. Surrounded by the sea, kids here have a boat almost as much as kids elsewhere have bicycles! As I grew older my fishing ambitions gave way to what's around me. Although I still "drop a line" every so often, my attention wanders to the majesty of the natural light that make this place so special. Never is each day the same. The subjects may be the same but the light from the sea & sky will morph the subject into a form of art. Artists have been drawn to these shores for several hundred years,they followed the light painting and sketching these surroundings. What artists capture with paint on canvas, I attempt to capture with a click.....if I'm lucky!

I guess that's a sort of Fish'n!

Almost There!!

You can blame it on the weather and you can blame it on family commitments but this year it's been a bear trying to plan prep work and launching. I'm almost there,with one set-back. After I removed it's winter cover two weeks ago I washed the interior only to discover the maple tree above had deposited loads of buds making a mess inside! Back to scrubbing and washing this morning and all that stuff. Then after searching my home & shed for one roll of painters tape I thought I had, it was a trip to the Building Center for a roll. $9.95...OUCH!!!And I thought gas at $3.99 a gallon was bad!
