For most of the pictures I use a Sony H3. It is not as good as a DSLR like a Nikon D40 which my wife has but it is a nice compromise of smallish size with a ten times optical zoom. It wouldn’t be practical for me to lug a big camera around and at least half of the shots I take are of the spontaneous kind which wouldn’t happen if my camera wasn’t on my person when something took place.
I’ve been shooting for a couple of years but in no way do I consider myself a professional. About half the shots I take are with the automatic settings unless I know there is something I want to mess with and I’ll make a manual adjustment.
There are many far greater photographers than me who have blogs like Steve B, Jay Albert, Jim Barber, Sharon Lowe, and Mark Teiwes. What I think I bring to the local blogging world is a combination of journalistic flair, and I’m not intimidated to get in someone’s grill with my camera. I like pictures of boats as I take my fair share of them and I like pictures of the harbor but the work I like the most is the personal shots of people doing something or up close that can tell a story. I’m in sort of a unique situation because I know so many diverse people between the restaurateurs, fishermen, and artisans around town and I’m also sort of a tech geek so when you put all that together I think it makes for a semi-interesting blog.

Gloucester will be featured on Thurs. June 25 at the Sargent House at 7 p.m. with “Reversal of Fortune: Judith Sargent & the Fight for Women’s Rights.” Hear how a loveless marriage, enormous debts, and a great love affair led to the fight for female independence. See works by Fitz Henry Lane and John Singer Sargent in a fabulous mansion near the harbor.
The tour can accommodate 20 participants and it costs $15 per person. Reservations required. More info (tickets, downloable brochure) can be found on our cultural website http://www.escapesnorth.com/maritime_mansions
Thanks in advance for helping promote this new program.

You’re doing so much for Glosta and its history. I just stumbled on this site this morning from a link on the GDT page. The first thing I saw here was the song by Earl & Arch, Gloucester till the End. What an amazing tribute to the fishermen and people of this community. I don’t know Mike but he did a great job putting that vid together.
You’ve got some awesome pics here, too. I’ve always enjoyed photography and just recently made the switch from 33mm to digital. Amazing how far the technology has come in just a few short years. My little Canon SD1200IS can see stars at night that even my own eyes fail to detect
Anyway, you have a great site going here. Hope you keep it up for a long time to come. I found myself coming back to it several times today to explore it further. Hope your dad and the rest of your family are all doing well. BTW – I had 2 girls also, both of them young adults now. And keep this in mind. Any guy can make a son, but it takes a real man to make a woman. As was explained to me by an old Scotsman. I can tell by your photos you’re a great dad. Keep up the great work.

Hi Joey,
I’m a new-ish Gloucester resident ( and long cape ann appreciator ) come over from great neck in ipswich.
photographer, writer, musician, yoga-ist, pet rescuer, social scientist, long time house cleaner & interior design/ clutter buster, future counselor, yoga & health teacher and all round cool person, lol. I look at your page regularly and have been meaning to send some photos and such.
Gloucester is fascinating, and i’m glad to be here.
I have 2 hounds, one, DUNCAN, an american-english coonhound ( lemon-spotted, no less !), southern rescue,
a really serious tracking/hunting dog. ( pacifist tho, he doesn’t kill, or end the hunt ). One of the business plans i was about to emBARK on
is an exercise excursion for dogs, or dogs and humans, led my self and my hounds thru the woods… at an appropriate level of fitness.
these dogs not only lead a good outdoor work out, but they can show you where many different animals live and the paths they travel, etc.
We enjoy the beaches, and the woods and quarries daily, and get to know the woods and the people and animals in them better and better. This would be an important element of our excursions.
Sadly, i think Duncan has gone off to do the research on his own. The two hounds slipped out the back of our Lanesville Home. I woke up to find the little one home on the couch looking dazed 2 days later. Duncan has now been gone a week. He was last seen & heard baying/ singing up by Nelson’s quarry last weekend. He knows how to live in the woods, as he did in Virginia, and i have a feeling someone has seen him and is putting out food in hopes he’ll come. And that he’s eating the food and taking off to track again. he’s like an addict when he tracks. So i’m writing to you
in hopes that some of your readership may have seen or HEARD him ( very distinctive sing-song-y bay)
and in hopes that some of them might have good knowledge of Dogtown and the Quarry area that they might want to show off.
I don’t feel i can just leave him out there alone. I’m hoping some people might want to help me search for him, create some search parties.
Duncan is such a special dog to me. I’ve lost a lot lately, but at least i still had him. Now he’s running around dog town somewhere and i’ve got to somehow find him before he gets his foot caught in a pile of rocks or something. If anyone has seen, heard or can help make search parties for him please contact me
at: suburban_seaqueen@yahoo.com ( and should i include a phone # ?)
Thank you in advance !!

Hi Joey,
Any way you can help promote this? This is what I posted on Facebook, but there’s no way I can reach as many people as you can! Thanks for considering…
Hi all, my husband Sal Di Stefano and I are fairly new to Rockport MA A friend of ours Lisa Glover at Nine Lives Cafe had to close for a bit for a family emergency. She just reopened today. She’s such a positive and civic-minded small biz, we’d like to help her out. We’d like to do a “CASH MOB” at the café tomorrow, (Thursday 8/6/15). I challenge us all to go spend $10 in cash at the café. We “mob” her so she sells out of coffee and pastries. Who’s with us? Thank you for your consideration.

Dear Good,
I have to say that your blog is one of the best ones that I have ever read. It is absolutely the best local blog that I have ever found. Your love for where you live is deeply inspiring.
Thank you for introducing me to Gloucester.
