It was so cold the first part of February that these sculptures were in pretty good shape more than a week after they were carved.
Shot on February 8, these photos show some of what remained of the Ice Sculpture event at Winterfest, held in Camden’s beautiful amphitheater, on January 30.
More proof that fun in Maine’s winter is endless.
Tobogganoids.

Winter shadows.

The northern winter sun sits decidedly low on the horizon.
And paints long, dark, dramatic, shadows on the snow.
Who says winter lacks excitement?

Subtle beauty of winter.
Monday, January 18th, 2010
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.
Proof that winter affects brain cells.

So what if Florida has the Super Bowl! We have our own national sports spectacle – - The National Toboggan Championships, held at the Camden Snow Bowl, February 5-7, 2010!
A mix between Carnival or Mardi Gras, and the Winter Olympics, this event is an example of what happens in Maine when the temperatures get lower and the days get shorter. Winter alters our brain cells and fun breaks out.
If you haven’t been before, here’s your chance. The best part is that anyone can enter!
Here is a link to previous crazy years.
Winter windows.

Cold outside, cozy inside.
Fragile windows frame the frigid beauty of Maine’s winter.
Even while taking a shower.
Amazing new life forms emerge.

Every winter storm brings new life to some of Maine’s most appealing creatures.
This very charming species was spotted in Castine after the ‘Route One Blizzard’ of early 2010.
Here they are observed in their native habitat.
Making spirits bright!
