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!

Only In "Glosta" !

My day on the docks at 5:30am,a perfect morning. Temps crept into the high 60's not bad for the start of Fall. Later in the day the sounds of the squaking gulls were drowned out by an off key trumpet player! What was that we were hearing as our eyes scanned the waterfront. There he was down on the float a gentleman and his trumpet! The sounds of brass broken only by an occasional sips from the contents of a brown paper bag! Eventually the serenade ended when the suggestion was made he'd be better off on dry land.

Eartly morning.

Sorting table.

On the bow...Not exactly a scene from the movie "Titanic"!

Ten Pound Island Light

"Princess Elena" heads out to sea.

Whale watch boat "Miss Cape Ann".

Perfect day to see the whales.

"Miss Carla"

"Jupiter II"

A gull had just expertly removed the lobster meat from this tail. Lucky gull!

"Titan" looks like a turtle out of the water!

Trumpet player on the docks!

Nice looking trumpet.......a wincing sound! But glad he didn't bring bag pipes!

Cheers!
