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 Gloucester Tradition!

The 2012 Annual Gloucester Schooner Festival is an event that's magnificent to behold! Fellow blogger and friend and I Steve Borichevsky headed out for the Parade of Sail. The only disappointment of the day was the HMS Bounty which stayed tied to the dock during the parade. It would have been nice to see her sails among the schooners. But even without her the Adventure stole the show. Finally she has an engine installed after 58 years! It was a mad dash for her crew to get her ready just in time. Though she still lacks her sailing rig it was wonderful to see her lead the parade. And don't forget to check out Steve's blog Shooting My Universe for many awesome shots! More to follow....... HMS Bounty at night. Moon behind the clouds. Rigging All lit up! Getting "Speedwell" ready. HMS Bounty close up. Crowds gather at Fort Defiance! "Adventure" leads the parade! Passing Fort Defiance. Watching "American Eagle" go by. "Stanley Thomas" Reds sails! Big crowd on the "Thomas E. Lannon". "Thomas E. Lannon" and "Liberty Clipper" A gathering of schooners. "Sugar Babe" A belly dancer aboard the "Ardelle"! "Spirit of Massachusetts" and "Summerwind" "Adventure" bow.
