Cape Ann Images: A brisk day on the water!

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!

A brisk day on the water!

It was almost cold enough for a jacket,more like early Spring.But the visability was unlimited with a light chop. Friday afternoon is my favorite time to get out on the water,light boat traffic is the norm. Scanning the docks,nooks & crannies can result in something I've never seen before.It's good to see the youngsters learning how to fish.With video games now entrentched into the youth of today, it's nice to see them getting outdoors getting some fresh air! Anyway...instead of spelling out captions for the photo's ,I'll let the pictures talk for themselves.
