My View of Life on the Dock
Yesterday afternoon I drove from Rhode Island back up to Gloucester, and stopped several times to take photos of the clouds. In my photography workshop this afternoon at The Hive, I will be explaining (among other things) the techniques I used to bring out the contrast and detail in these photos.
At the end of a beautiful afternoon in late March.
January 2-The Back Shore.
The morning of the Blackburn Challenge contestants and viewers of the race noticed some pretty weird clouds. Hard to capture in a camera, they looked a little like this photo taken from the wiki page describing mammatus clouds. Terry Weber posted at GMG about these mysterious clouds here.
“Mammatus” from the latin mamma for breast or udders. On race day the clouds were much larger in the breast category with cleavage compressed as small indentions. A cold front comes in, some wind shear occurs, and these large lumpy clouds start dropping from the sky.
Some clouds have a silver lining, on Cape Ann they sometimes appear to be double D cup.

Storm Clouds Over Good Harbor Last Week
This photograph was taken at Wingersheek Beach. I used a technique called HDR (High Dynamic Range) photography. It takes 3 photos that have 3 different exposures and combines them into one HDR photograph.
Hello All, My name is Michael Lindberg and I am from Gloucester. I have been asked by Joey to be a regular contributer to GMG. I am very exited to be participating in such a great blog. I enjoy photography, videography, graphic arts, music, fishing and boating. I have traveled around the world for the past 30 years and there is nothing more I like than returning home to what I feel is the best place on earth. I hope you all will comment on my posts and let me know what you think.
Good Morning Gloucester
