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!

Good gull photos. I like the second one down!

I also like the fog picture at the end, but they're all good.

Do you have your boat in yet, Jay?

The boat is still on the trailer. I got the cover off the boat and I re-wired a new VHF radio. I still need to paint the bottom. I haven't had the time to get her in. This job has been a whirlwind with going off for training on Cape Cod (that other cape) and jumping right into it when I got back.

It's not "soda" and not "pop" or even "soda pop" it's "tonic"!
