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!

2014 St. Peter's Fiesta! Part 1

Almost perfect weather for this years St. Peter's Fiesta. Trying to decide how to post some of the 350 images I took this year presented a problem. So for this year I started with the Friday, Saturday and Sunday Greasy Pole Champions with a few other interesting shots thrown in. Much more to follow!

Friday Greasy Pole......Blue spiked hair fail!
 Oh so close but no cigar!
 Jack Russ on leave from the USAF approaches the flag.
 Reaching for victory!

Taking the flag down!
 Hitting the water.
 High five!
 Another high five!
 Shoulder ride!
Saturday Greasy Pole contest.
 Loosing grip!
 Spiderman fail!
 Kyle Barry grabs the flag!
 Flag follows him down!
 Victory splash!
 Saturday Greasy Pole Champ Kyle Barry!
 Sunday the walkers arrive and a plume of water!
 Perfect view!
 Not close enough!
 Even this effort is not close enough!
 Mark Allen grabs the flag.
 High fives all around.
 He still has grip of the flag!
