Considering that the Bay of Fundy has some of the highest tides in the
world, I thought you may be interested in participating in this photo
contest through the Gulf of Maine Council.

Gulf of Maine King Tides Photo Contest=20
Planned for October 9, 2014
=20
Along the 7,500-mile Gulf of Maine shoreline, an extreme high tide on
October 9, 2014 will illustrate what may become-with sea-level rise-the
new tidal norm. Participants in the first-ever Gulf of Maine King Tides
Photo Contest ( <http://gulfofmaine.kingtides.net/>
http://gulfofmaine.kingtides.net/) <http://gulfofmaine.kingtides.net/>
can document how the astronomical high tide that day affects wharves,
causeways, marshes, beaches and other coastal settings. Interested
citizens are encouraged to join the contest-submitting images from their
cameras or smart phones.

Organizations from three states and two Canadian provinces are
collaboratively planning the Gulf contest-inviting images of coastal
settings from Cape Cod Bay to Cape Sable in Nova Scotia. Sea levels
within the Gulf of Maine have increased more than half a foot (20 cm.)
over the past century, and scientists anticipate an additional rise by
2100 of at least 2 feet (61 cm.), and possibly more than 3 ft (91 cm.).=20
