Cape Ann Images: Unexpected Cruise !

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!

Unexpected Cruise !

Sunday with a forecast of thunderstorms,going out on the boat was not on my mind. But with my 7 year old nephew spending the day at my house, it was a matter of time when the subject came up. I promised him if the radar looked favorable, we can go.So a look on the computer I could see we had at least a 3 hour window to make a trip out. It turned out to be a decent day,a fair amount of boat traffic and the "coasties" playing horseshoes with some along the piers fishing.
