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!

Slow Down And Look Where You Live!

This special place we call home is easy to take for granted. After all we see these sights every day. But if you stop and take it all in, a new vision takes hold. The waterways are always in transition, the tide ,the sky and the on water activity make each moment different.

Gloucester's Golden Dome!

The West End!

Schooners at the Gloucester Maritime heritage Center!

Rowing!

Truer words were never spoken. Since becoming more obsessed with photography I've found so many beautiful places in my area that I never noticed before. Even the sky looks different.

Unfortunately some people will never see what's right in front of them.
