When I looked out the window I could see waves braking the entire length of Dogbar Breakwater. I had some extra time so I grabbed my camera and headed out to Eastern Point.
On the way there was a lot of debris in the roads and some limbs were down. When I got to work, my cell phone buzzed. It was the Gloucester Red Alert call. There were at least 79 trees down. Even on the grounds, there were two young, healthy scrub pine trees uprooted and another shredded.
Yes, I've lived through Nor'easters, this one was pretty fierce.

AMAZING!!!!
Oh my goodness! Those are amazing shots!
The first photo is meant for a frame!
Here in upstate, NY we're way over 20" of snow this week... more still falling this morning~
Steve, I have seen some fantastic waves you have osted befor, but this really beats the lot!
Wow, wow, and wow again!
Amazing shots Steve, I love the way a camera can stop water. Thanks for sharing:)
Great shots Steve!
Awesome shots, Steve! I love the first shot, but the waves crashing shots are wonderful too. Well done!
Wow! The top photo is amazing. I am not sure if it is your best photo, but it certainly is your "coolest".
You have captured the intensity of the storm to show us. It is beautiful and fierce to see! Wonderful photos and I have to agree, that first is incredible. You should put it into a photo contest. It is the best lighthouse shot I have seen!
wooowww.....great!! amazing shoots... a bit scary though..

That first shot is incredible. I think and hope that it is a foreground background type picture, Either that or you have some mighty waves hitting the light house!
Fantastic shots of the ocean's power

That first one should be framed. Great that you captured it from down low and with the gray sky, it sure magnifies the wave.
You have such a wonderful eye!
Such beautiful photos !
I love the one with the spray and the lighthouse. I have never seen that view of the light house before!
Love coming here! I'll be back!
p.s. were you in danger when you took this photo? I feels like you were very close to that water :-)
Whoa .... Aligator
HI Steve,
These are wonderful scenery pictures! I could give you some with snow now ;-) It came late in the year but it came in fairly good amount ;-) We got two white days now..
What beautiful pictures. I love the water and these shots are just awesome!
Wow that's pretty rough sea Steve, but fantastic images.
Dear Steve these are great shots congratulations and regards from Greece :)
Wow, looks like the tide was high too; the water level is so close to the top of the breakwater. Great shots, especially the top one.
Wow!!! That first shot is simply incredible!!
Your not kidding, it certainly was a fierce Nor'easter!
The breakwater sure looks different from when I was there on Monday. A little scary yet beautiful all at the same time.
Niiice! those are some serious waves! And the lighting was so nice, lucky! Every time we have crazy waves here, the light is so bad! These are great photos, too bad about the trees though :(
Grandiose!
Raw nature. Well shot Steve.
Glad you made it through! I saw the hotel in Gloucester with the roof ripped right off! The Crane castle over my way lost part of its roof too, and 100 trees. Just glad the power and the heat are back on! :) but you should see the river! the water is almost coming flat off the dam and we're past flood stage...
Wow! that first picture is incredible! Awesome. We are pretty torn up here on the N.H. Seacoast also. Many folks still without power.
