3,000 miles of rocky coast, clean water, and the large tidal flow make Maine very seaweed friendly.

Seaweed is a $7-billion global industry. It’s used for food, fertilizer, chemicals, even medicine. Maine’s entrepreneurs are taking notice.

As if lobster wars weren’t enough, now the seaweed battles have begun.

Subtle beauty of winter.

In winter, the beauty of the landscape is lost on some. They see only black and white, very little color, and are lost.

But if they look just a little longer, exqusite beauty will express itself in subtle and dramatic ways.

But most likely they just head out to warmer spots, in search of brighter colors.

Smoking sea.

Thursday, December 17th, 2009

Sea smoke occurs when the air is much colder than the water below. It’s essentially a cloud. The evaporation happens faster than the air can absorb the water vapor and the surface wind blows it across the sea.

Just another beautiful, but chilly, part of winter in Maine.

How to improve your vision — try out the new Image Deck.

Sunday, June 29th, 2008

Click here to try the new ‘Image Deck.’

The Image Deck will be a series of galleries containing images of Maine, related to the 2bnMaine web site. It’s not fully loaded yet — still working on it. But you can get a glimpse into how it will work.

The first page is a series of photos taken from one spot on the Western shore of Penobscot Bay which will be updated periodically. And currently, there are also more photos from the Stewart Garden Tulip Tour in Northeast Harbor.

This section uses a great new content management system called Inexhibit. It’s free and open source. Try it out!

Now you can now have 20/20 vision of Maine. Check back, much more in the works.
