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!

While On The Job !

My job takes me from Gloucester to Newburyport and it's interesting to see what goes on along the waterfront. Today was a challenge, with the Gloucester Triathlon going on I had to negotiate the running race to get around to the docks.


Ready for the swim.

Baiting up! Look at the pretty colors!
