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!

Giants From The Deep !

Giant Bluefin Tuna brought in by the lobster/tuna boat "Lady J."!

Captain David Jewell and his crew traveled 153 miles offshore,18 hours of travel time to catch these monsters. Approx. weight 650lbs and 800lbs.... these took a combined 6 hours to land aboard their vessel. The larger one was so powerful, with the reel set at maximum drag the giant tuna still ran off line! They stopped by Captain Joe & Sons Lobster to show off their two monsterous prizes. Luckily I was there "shooting the breeze" with Joey and Frank when the "Lady J." pulled in. Joey the master of the blog Good Morning Gloucester got in some photos and a video of the catch of the day.

Frank checks out the giants!
