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!

Boat Covered and Other Stuff!

Due to the high T-Top to cover my 21' x 8.6' boat I had to use a 20' x 30' tarp. I still have a few adjustments to make.

A Duck Out of Water!

At work the other day I was getting ready to go home when someone pointed out a duck looking confused on Commercial St. At first I tried to scare it off but it tried to take off and remained grounded. So I talked to it in "Duck" to calm it down. It worked, I must have said something right and it allowed me to approach and pick it up and I carried it to the beach where it took off.

Another Month Goes By!

I got the boat home but the cover doesn't fit! I knew that would be the case since I bought this cover for my old boat. The "new" boat with a "T" top is much higher than my old Walk Around. I figure to put it on no matter how small it is and it will make it easier to slide the new one when I get it.
