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!
This is the time of year seasonal boaters start to make plans on the upcoming season.I thought a few "pics" from past summers would put a few of us into the spirit. I know I'm itching to be on the water!
Know one knows the story of the attack boat! There were actually three of them heading out that day. Some say it was the Secret Service on some kind of training exercise.No one on board had and standard uniforms but were all wearing bullet proof vests!
Maybe Bush 41's staff are getting new boats. His Secret Service escort has seemed to be a bit handicapped in their big black Zodiac. This looks a lot more appropriate to the task!

What an interesting aray of boats, Jay. I think my favorite was the Penguin. Very 4th of July feel.
That speed boat, two shots below the Penguin is really something! I'd be nervous riding in that. Can't imagine how much it must have cost!
I found the Attack Boat very interesting too. Before you know it, it will be boating season once again.
So what's the story about the attack boat? Ominous, to say the least.
