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!

Looking Back !

What I posted here are a few of my early photos. The fishing vessel "Two Friends" awaits the welders torch. She had been sunk dockside in Harbor Cove for several years when she was raised and brought here in East Gloucester. Her rigging and superstructure was removed,holes in the hull repaired and towed away. This was my very first picture taken with a digital camera!

Robert,they actually cut about 10' off the stern then welded plating to seal it. Kathleen if that's the most painted boat in the harbor,I'd guess it doesn't go out much!
