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 guess that's a sort of Fish'n!

Hot & Humid & Hazy

The three H's....Dogs tongues hang and drip type of weather.When I enter my boat at the dock the helm is like a greenhouse with it surrounded by an eisenglass & canvas enclosure. As soon as I un-zip the enclosure it feels like the AC is on,but only for a moment. Even the outer harbor is no relief from the humidity. You gotta get at least 3 miles out before the cooling breezes off the water takes hold. And that's what I do. Cut the engine,drop a line overboard and kick back and listen to sports talk radio.I'll stay out there 2-3 hours if not catching fish....catching a cool breeze. I think of that last line in the credit card commercial,"Priceless" 'cause I don't wanna think how much it costs for gas!
All but the yacht and outboard on this next series of photo's are from my return trip. I always like to take a tour of the harbor coming in.
