Cape Ann Images: First Week Of A New Decade !

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!

First Week Of A New Decade !

Winter has grabbed a foothold here as snow adds to the scenery. I did see something I never seen before...a winter rainbow! No rain or snow at all during the day and there it was. It wasn't your typical rainbow with all the colors of the prism it was a white/silver rainbow with subtle colors on the edge. Perhaps frozen crystals were aloft creating this phenomenon.
