Cape Ann Images: Time To Get Ready !

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!

Time To Get Ready !

That time of year to get the boat ready for launch. I started out on my knees scrubbing and brushing. But when my knees and back started to complain I pulled out the heavy artillary....the power washer. The non-skid surfaces in the boat are a pain to keep clean,why I didn't think of using the power washer is beyond me. It did a great job cleaning all those nook & crannies. I was drenched from head to toe but that's a whole lot better than hours of back breaking scrubbing!
