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!

My Views of Gloucester !

Blizzard Juno and Gloucester Tamed It!

Weathermen from all around said a beast is coming. Packing high winds and heavy snow yet the City of Gloucester was up to the task. After the last flake fell there was 31' on the ground and drifting all over. By sunrise most of the main roads were cleared. Back in 1969 we were hammered by a 41" snow fall and it paralyzed the city. Power was out for a better part of a week, no school for two weeks and the National Guard was called in with heavy equipment. This time it was Gloucester that was the beast!
And as I type another snow storm is on our doorstep!
