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!

Almost Time To Splash !

With a new job, time for the boat has taken a back seat. Working every day since May 1st and away for certification training the last week in April, I finally had two days off to get the boat ready. And I needed those two days! When the cover came off I was surprised the boat looked dirtier than when I put the cover on last October! Saturday morning out came the power washer, I attacked inside and out and changed the lower gear oil. Sunday morning it was time to paint the bottom. It's a thankless task laying on my back with paint hitting me in the face at times. When the bottom was finished it was time to wax & buff the hull. I took a break to watch the 2nd half of the Celtics game then returned to the boat to remove the masking tape and clean up. And there in the yard watching the proceedings was our resident wild rabbit "EG"!
