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!

A Coast Guard Boarding and 2009 March Sunset !

With rain and drizzle the last few days I stumbled on a boarding of the fishing vessel "Bantry Bay" by the USCG 47'MLB. Also a few other harbor subjects. Then I decided to go back to this week in 2009 and bring back a few sunset images.

Beautiful Piling shots!
That poor Bantry bay seems like a magnet for the USCG. I've seen them be boarded before and listen to on my scanner a few times in the last couple of years.

It's not "soda" and not "pop" or even "soda pop" it's "tonic"!
