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!

The weather certainly has been variable alright and I don't like it. It should be warm and sunny everyday! We've had enough rainy, foggy weather to last the next month or so.

Thats amazing about the tugs being built in 1906! I love seeing the tugs here in Portsmouth, especially when they are in action. Unfortunately that doesn't happen to often.

Great photos as always Jay!

Thanks Sharon! Mowing my lawn this summer has been a pain.Usually I can count on mowing it once a week but this time my mowing schedule is all messed up! Many times it's too wet when it's time to mow plus it's growing like crazy! Every 4 days it SHOULD be mowed!

It's not "soda" and not "pop" or even "soda pop" it's "tonic"!
