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!

Boats Docks & Rocks !

Stripers are in the harbor and people are fishing every which way. From boats,docks and rocks they have converged upon the port to try their luck. Calms seas with a hazy overcast sky, I managed to get in just before a brief thunderstorm.. Among the sights in the harbor was Geno Mondello's new-to-him lobster boat "Western Edge".

Gloucester is so scenic. Absolutely beautiful. What a great day to be out on the water, fishing, and getting a sunburn!

Great Eider shot! Wow!

I take it you didn't go to Rochester.

That Eider caught me be surprise,I had just turned my boat around and there it was. Ya Sharon I never made it, my wife gave me beagle sitting duty! Her parents have a beagle too and they planned on going to bingo after the party. Too long to leave the dogs home alone.

It's a good thing you had the dogs to use as an excuse ; )

Personally, I try to avoid Rochester at all costs. ha haa! I grew up in the next town over, Barrington. Aka, Bore-ington.

We once went camping near Rochester @ Kings & Queens....it was a joke! Later we camped @ Pine Acres in Raymond. That was ok until they sold half their property to Wall Mart. Dusty roads and gas powered exhaust choking golf carts racing around was the result! That's when I sold the travel trailer and bought a bigger boat!

Aka, Rott-chester. Yeah, it's not very elite up there that's for sure but my dad goes there all the time to hand out with his friends.

From what I recall someone was murdered at that campground several years ago. Rochester also has a gang problem now. It sure didn't used to be that bad. Of course in general it's very safe.

Jay,
Thank you for the picture of my yellow Stamas Express running past the breakwater!

I really enjoy your web site and the great images that you post. Reviewing your summertime images makes our long NH winters a little easier to take.

Thanks again,

Kevin
