Seen in the Castilian city of Segovia, Spain. I thought it was very innovative to be able to set up tables outside after all, even if the "ground conditions" don't really allow it :-).

Managed to catch the 1995-built "Cable Innovator" on a beautiful day. One of the largest cable ships today.
built by students at Pomona College. There are several rooms and no corners in the house. Lighting is through multi-colored glass windows embedded in the walls and ceilings.
Excerpt from aecom.com/projects/hong-kong-zhuhai-macao-bridge-and-hong...:
The Hong Kong Port connects to the HZMB from a site with approximately 130 hectares of reclaimed land. The port’s Passenger Clearance Building (PCB) is iconic, with aesthetically striking architecture. Its long span curved roof mimics the surrounding sea and offers unobstructed views. Its skylights filter natural light to minimize power usage for the whole building. Tree-like columns support the roof and provide an airy feel inside.
Given the project’s proximity to the airport, our team had to overcome airport height restrictions and limited space onsite, together with the mandate to complete the PCB in 30 months whilst the whole Port was to be completed in about four years. The design and construction of the PCB roof were the most notable innovations to meet these challenges.
Its key features include:
•The integration of BIM and 3D scanning. In 2014, the use of digitalization in civil engineering was still in its infancy in Hong Kong. By overlaying the complex roof design and as erected models, any out of tolerance areas could be readily identified and rectified.
•Pre-fabrication of a total of 81 roof segments, with all necessary fittings and building services including pre-installed MEP completed offsite, form the roof that stretches to the size of nine FIFA football pitches. The largest segment measures 61 meters x 25 meters and weighs 680 tons and remains the largest and heaviest spatial structural frame for a building as of 2022.
•First ever use of installation by vertical lifting and then horizontal jacking of this scale in Hong Kong. This not only overcame the space and height limitations but also allowed parallel construction of the concrete works below to accelerate project time. On-site safety was also enhanced by the subsequent reduction in the need for working at height.
Since then, innovative construction methods, including Modular Integrated Construction (MiC) and MiMEP, inspired by Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA) have become important elements in Hong Kong’s construction industry.
Sustainable features at the Port such as the District Cooling System, and the use of treated effluent from the onsite tertiary sewage treatment plant for toilet flushing helped earn the project two platinum and one gold BEAM Plus awards.
The port also contains other associated infrastructure and auxiliary facilities, such as:
•Cargo clearance facilities
•Road network
•Transit interchange
•Traffic control surveillance system
•Accommodations for frontline departments such as Immigration and Customs and Excise
Awards and Recognition:
•HKIE Grand Award 2023 – Grand Prize (Infrastructure Category)
•Hong Kong Green Building Council BEAM Plus Award 2020 – Platinum
•The Lighthouse Club Safety Leadership Awards 2016 – Gold (Architect-Consultant Category)
2019年の浅草サンバカーニバルで撮影しました。衣装は斬新ですが皆さんちょっとお姉さんと呼ぶには微妙な年齢だったかと記憶しています。今年の開催を楽しみにしています。

This is a photo taken at the 2019 Asakusa Samba Carnival. Their costumes are innovative, but I remember that everyone was a bit too old to call them "daughters". I am looking forward to the event this year.

SAMSKIP INNOVATOR (IMO: 9436214) is a Container Ship and is sailing under the flag of Cyprus. Her length overall (LOA) is 140.61 meters and her width is 22.02 meters.
Today we were asked to take a minimal photo and use interesting backgrounds and filters to innovate it. I turned a banana peel into "a work of art". ;)
The World's Largest Elkhorn Arch (Afton, WY) contains over 3,000 elk antlers. The arch is 75 feet wide, and 18 feet above the four lanes of Highway 89 in downtown (on our way to Grand Tetons NP). An informative sign on one end claims: "To duplicate this arch at today's prices the cost would be over $300,000 for the antlers alone." There's also a free spring water dispenser next to the Afton arch -- a bonus for the thirsty Elkhorn Arch snapshot collector.
The arch was built in 1958, weighs 15 tons, and antlers continue to be added. This doesn't appear to be a hunter's trophy, but likely the antlers were shed naturally each season.
Jackson, WY continues the tradition with several antler arches of their own, but none as impressive as this one.
A new connection between Cambridge and outlying villages. This looks toward the new Medical Research Council building.
Be bold. Be risky. Innovate. Refuse to be trapped within your mundane concepts. Grab what’s potential and make it a possibility. Take those fluttering ideas and dwell in their greatness. Never underestimate the value of an idea. Seek, find, imagine and create. Do not be discouraged by rejections. It takes time and patience and hard work and endless internal debate for an innovation to be accepted. Work around your doubts. Take the challenge head on.
