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!

A Picture Perfect Day For A Big Visitor!

Weather as ordered if you are in the tourism business! Gloucester played host to a behemoth, a 936' 86,700 ton, 2104 passenger carrying cruise ship MS "Eurodam". And from my observations most of the passengers spent the day in town walking around the waterfront.

MS "Eurodam"

Massive bow looms over the mooring field.

Anchored on the Pancake Grounds.

Little red sailboat passes by.

Off the beach.

Someone pilled up some rocks!

Full shuttle boat.

Passing the Paint Factory.

Heading back to the "Mother ship".

"Stoga",captain and crew of the tiny fishing dragger "Capt. Joe"

"Stoga" sticks his head out!

Heading back to the berth.

"Pretty Girl"

Relaxing between offloads.

Gull takes a stroll.

In the windows of Ocean Crest.
