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!

Ever Changing Skies !
The day before solid cloud cover descended over the harbor. Even though you don't see the orange light as the sun sets, it does give that tranquil feeling. Scattered clouds today created the sky into a pastel canvas.
I almost didn't bother! I was pooped from mowing and raking and at the last second figured why not? It's only down the street. As I was taking the pics I wanted to be in 3 or 4 places for different fore grounds but knew it wouldn't last.

Gorgeous! I was inside looking at them out the window thinking, "Hmmm, wonder where I left my camera."
