I'm Marty Luster, a retired attorney and politician. In 2010 my wife, mother-in-law, dog and I relocated from Central NY to Gloucester. I hope my photographs and poetry(?) reflect my love for this place and her people.

West Gloucester near Wingaersheek Beach. That’s Jones Creek and the Annisquam in the background.

Oh wow…kinda thought it was in that area…is where I grew up. Thanks for moving to Gloucester and for all of your wonderful photos. You certainly have a “good eye” that can tug at the heart of former natives. terry

Amazing! What kind of front (or other) created such a spectacle??? If it were painted by an artist folks might be inclined to think it was a true figment of the imagination.

Thank you all for your very kind comments.
There had been a prediction of severe thunderstorms, so I had been paying attention to the sky. This cloud formation appeared quickly and it was gone just as quickly. Never did get the storm. I shot this with a Fujifilm x-100 at 1/1000 sec, f4.0, ISO 320. The camera has a fixed 35mm (equiv.) lens.
I used Nik Silver Efix Pro 2 (a wonderful black and white conversion application) to enhance contrast and structure. I think I also applied a (digital) red filter to further dramatize the scene.
