Cape Ann Images: Storm Is Gone...Surf's Up !

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!

Storm Is Gone...Surf's Up !

The storm has passed but it left a good surf behind. Surfers at Good Harbor Beach had great conditions to hone their skills.

Washed up lobster pot!

Thacher Island!

Surfers head out!

Checking the surf!

Full steam ahead!

In white water!

In the trough!

In the turmoil!

Looking over the wave!

Catching a wave!

Made it!

Loose surf board!

Missed wave!

One in the trough and one IN the crest!

Surfer behind the break!
