Gloucester Seagulls
I Love Homies!
Random snapshots from recent photo trips with Fujufilm X-E1. Ubiquitous, and from every vantage point, the gulls always make their presence known. Gloucester seagulls are the best–so photogenic!

Cooperative Seagulls
While filming B-roll of gorgeous herons, ducks, geese, and gulls this morning, the homies were particularly cooperative. Click images to view larger.
Come to think of it, the sunbeams, the herons, the pearly pink-hued surf caught in the dawn light, and sand turned-brilliant-gold were also cooperating. It must be my good fortune! Last night on my way home from work I purchased my first ever lottery ticket and, although unfortunate in that I did not win the half billion dollars, I feel fortunate everyday for our shared beauty that is Gloucester.

Thanksgiving Morning Surf
Thanksgiving morning I took an early morning walk to relax before all the craziness started. It reminded me to be extra thankful for the wonderful place I live.
The light we have on Cape Ann is amazing and everyday it’s a little bit different. It was nice to have the Thanksgiving break, where I had time to enjoy the mornings a little more, rather than my usual rush to work and sitting in 128 traffic.

Beach Search
Boston’s MISSION FOR THE MISSING along with trained volunteers, search dogs and a forensic scientist descended on Good Harbor Beach at 10AM today to search for traces of Caleigh Harrison who disappeared from Long Beach on April 19. The search follows recovery on Friday at Good Harbor of what is likely the pants Caleigh was wearing on the day she went missing.
Caleigh’s parents, Anthony Harrison and Allison Hammond, were on hand as the search commenced and each expressed approval of the effort in the hope that it would result in a degree of closure for them.

Rainbow over Good Harbor
A rainbow appeared for a brief moment over Good Harbor Beach this afternoon. The surf is still crashing, but it looks like GHB held up pretty well to the storm.
Lots of people were out walking their dogs and enjoying some outside time after being cooped up because of Sandy.

Kite Surfing on Good Harbor Beach
On Friday took Avery and Cole to the beach. Cole, my 3 year old grandson, stated, “that is way too much fun for me” He then told me he wants to do the greasy pole. I love kids.

The Camera I’ve Been Using This Past Year Just Got A Huge Discount On Amazon From $698 to $498. It’s What I Use To Take All Those Gloucester At Dawn Photos Like This One! Gloucester At Dawn Good Harbor Beach Life Guard Chair 6:34AM 9/15/12
My NEX-5N which you’ve witnessed this past year and what I attribute to a huge portion of the fun I’ve had taking photos. it has a huge sensor in a compact form and I can’t recommend it enough. And for the price they slashed it down to it is an absolute NO BRAINER!
It was $698 and they cut $200 off on Amazon. I’m telling you don’t even think, just buy it and you’ll be psyched you did. I’m getting one for the Mrs. as soon as I finish typing this. I haven’t seen this deal any where else so I don’t know how many are available at that price but if it’s still there grab one with the kit lens. You’ll be happy you did.
