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!

I Know It's Cold Out...But, Summer Is Coming !

Last summers's Gloucester Schooner Festival was a photographers dream. I took several hundred shots and many were never posted. Why not bring back a little summer in winter? So the last few days I scoured my database to see what I could come up with. Most I had yet to post while a few I re-tweaked.

Spirit of Bermuda bowsprit!

Painting schooners!

"Man overboard" drill!

"Peacemaker and "Endeavour"!

"Alabama" and "Peacemaker"!

"Alabama"!

"Bluenose II" and "Pride of Baltimore"!

"Bluenose II" bow!

"Virginia" and "Roseway" crossing bows!

"Fame"!

"Fame" bow on!

"Fame" again!

"Virginia" bow!

"Thomas E. Lannon" heading at me!

"Summertime" passes "Bluenose II"!

"Pride of Baltimore" passes small schooner!

"Maine"!

"Gateway Endeavor" and bow of the "Thomas E. Lannon"!

"Spirit of Bermuda" gets salute!

For some reason I always have a hard time remembering it being that warm out when we're in the middle of winter. Summer sure was short!

I think I may have to come up with a summer like post myself sometime soon!
