The Japanese defense forces couldn't stop Godzilla.....I captured the beast!

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!

F/V Blacksheep and her home port !

Gloucester harbor isn't just about pictures and paintings and all the activity that goes with it, there are stories too.Stories about it's people and the goings on that make this harbor and our surrounding coastline live. Among the many books written "F/V Blacksheep" may be one of the most creative! Mark S. Williams wrote a brilliant essay on his life on the water. Mark passed away a few months back and put his heart and soul in creating this book. Now through his mother and his editor and dear friend Kathleen Valentine, a limited edition with photographs added will soon be available. Check out my links section for more info.
Meanwhile it was back on the water after many days of thunderstorms.

Oh, Jay! It doesn't take much to make me cry these days but this made me cry in a good way. Thank you! And thank you for all your help with the book! I hope it will be ready soon.
