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!

Clouds, Drought and a Damaged Wind Turbine!

 The drought continues, my yard is brown and the brook out back is dry! Not even a puddle is remaining. In the meantime late Saturday night the huge Applied Materials wind turbine installed in 2012 threw a blade. Luckily the only damage was a few 55 gallon drums of hydraulic fluid stored at the base. The turbine is the largest east of the Mississippi, well it was!


A chart to compare to.



November 2018 the last time it was worked on.
Dried up brook.
The deep end all dried up!
The brook overgrown.
There's fungus among us!
Overlooking the City of Gloucester.

Rippled sky over Good Harbor Beach.


Wispy cloud over the house.
Fiery sky!

The sky reflects off the East Gloucester Elementary School.
