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!

Last Entry of 2010 !

I struggled to find a title for my last entry of 2010....so there it is!
I was going to do a year in review but got lazy. And here I am a little older maybe a bit wiser and I still haven't hit the lottery! Perhaps I should mention my New Years resolution, but after a few weeks I always forget what it was so that's out. One thing I'd like to know.....Who had the brilliant idea to start a new year in the dead of winter anyway? They must be from the southern hemisphere! If I had any say the new year would be the first day of Spring!

So with that I wish everyone a safe,healthy and prosperous New Year!

Dun Fudgin boat ramp....When I downloaded this it looked like a city across the river. Those lights are actually dockage lamps at the empty Cape Ann Marina.

Jay,
Is that large stock of Lobster traps stored in your yard? can't all be used to keep you supplied with your favourite (favorite)crustacean!!!!

Best wishes for the New year.

You mean "Lobsta"?
Happy New Year to you and family!

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