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!

Dodging a Bullet !

About 9:30 Wednesday morning a line of T-storms swept through Cape Ann and though the rest of the day was breezy, it remained uneventful. But by late afternoon a series of tornadoes hit the western part of the state creating severe damage and disrupting the lives involved. At one point tornado warnings were issued by the National Weather Service for our area. Fortunately for us only a strange orange/pink sunset and distant lightning was the result.

Morning storm clouds build.

Getting very dark!

"Miss Trish II" passes by.

The Barquentine "Gazela" out of Philadelphia was built 1901 in Portugal. She is 177' overall and her masts reach 94' above the deck.
