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!

Another New Truck and More!

 I'm about to pick up a new pick up. I'm trading in my 2023 Ford with a 5.0 liter  engine and get a 2026 Ford STX with a 2.7 liter twin turbo. More economical but I admit the 5.0 wasn't bad on gas miliage. Both the 2023 and now the 2026 have 36 gallon gas tanks. With my driving it means I can go 3 months or so between fillups. I'm waiting for the new truck to get prepped with running boards, spray in bed liner and fog lights along with a tonneau cover.

      Good Harbor Beach and rising sun thru the trees.
