The Japanese defense forces couldn't stop Godzilla.....I captured the beast!
Spied this over Route 128 on my way home from work. Dirty windshield and strong sun glare I had to darken the image and crop out the sun. That's the only edit to what's probably my worse quality image. I figured some would get a kick out of it so I posted the pic on facebook. A few shares later it's gone world wide! Who would of thunk it?
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. For that reason 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 don't know where I heard that before but from looking on the water it's hard to tell! I do see fewer boats in my travels and for the most part many are cruising rather than rushing at top speed to save some fuel. But the quality is there,the "high enders" are enjoying the summer and there's no shortage of yacht visits to Cape Ann. From what I gather "El Lobo" is a new hull in town,91' long with a beam of 23',her top speed during trials was a robust 34 knots! With marble appointed furnishings and a price tag of $6.95 million,she's a beast!
Here is a sample of some of the wealth on and near the water plus a shot of the floats @ the Fish Pier. The home you will see is a recent addition to the Brace's Cove shoreline.
