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!

Saturday 2012 Greasy Pole !

With temps in the 90's it was off to the Greasy Pole by boat. With my boat in the mud at low tide I had to leave the dock no later than 12:30. I departed about 12:10 and joined the other rafted boats just in time. Any later I would have been shut out from a good enough spot to photograph the mayhem. With boats on all sides of me and with a myriad of boats blasting their stereos with different music, it was a long day on the water. Unfortunately I had a bad spot to photograph the seine boat races. Sunday I'll be back on the beach. Fenders deployed! Party time! Gooey! Picture time...this is the "crew" of the boat I tied up to...A great bunch! High dive! Back flip! Seine boat rows by. Mohawk fail! Feet! Falling backwards! Greasy entry! Flipped! Great attempt! Upside down! Spread eagle! SPLAT! Rib buster! Just out of reach! Oh so close! Nicky Avelis sits in front of the flag! Avelis grabs the flag! Going down with the prize!
