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!
On Saturday evening October 11 Main Street will be the sight of the 2nd Downtown Block Party. The 1st one in August was a huge success with over 3000 enjoying the food,dancing,music and a photo slide presentations by area photographers. I've been invited for this Block Party as one of the photographers to show our images on the "Big Screen" or as in this case the "Big Wall"! Here are a few of the images I selected that will be shown. Check out the link "Gloucester Block Party" in my links section for more info.

Jay, those are just wonderful!!! I am so proud to say I know you. That big wave on the boulevard is amazing and Homeward Bound is positively iconic.
You're amazing.
