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!

Changing Colors...Changing Weather !

It's that time of year when the chill starts to take hold and nor'easters slam the coast. The last few days we've got a hint of things to come.

Brace's Rock

Storm clouds!

Dark clouds over East Gloucester!

Charter boat "Lisa & Jake" having a rough time offshore.

How would you like to work out there?

Looks like a fast boat, but it's the wind and waves that make it look so.

"Princess Laura" heads in to offload.

Here comes a steel wall!

"Padre Pio" docking to unload.

Buswells Pond

Changing color!

Colorful ground cover.

Thanks but I have to give credit to the dock workers at the Gloucester Seafood Display Auction. Just after unloading a boat I noticed a few of them were taking pictures with their cell phones of the sky!
