My Views of Gloucester !

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. 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!

Dangerous Seas !

WARNING: Stay clear from the rocks during storm conditions! Many people have been swept away during these conditions over the years. When you think you are at least 50' from the danger zone....YOU ARE NOT! Rouge waves can surprise you anytime! I took these images from a safe distance using a telephoto lens.

With rain hitting me sideways photography was almost impossible. Rain and mist clouded my lens and the visability overall was poor. These images were taken along Bass Rocks and on Stacy Boulevard. No captions for this post, I'll let the images tell the story.
