Architect Shahid Syeed Khan’s 10 rooftop solar panels and single wind turbine generate five kilowatts of electricity, enough to run a computer, TV, eight fans, and forty light bulbs.

What could be better'n sitting in an Adirondack Chair watching a solar powered tourist boat go by in the harbour in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. Well, how about sitting with a friend and watching a solar powered tourist boat go by in the harbour in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island? Yeah, I figured that since I don't actually have any friends, I didn't wanna sit there all by myself. 'Cause then people would just walk by and say, "Look at that sad guy sitting all by himself waiting for a friend who's never gonna arrive." I hate it when that happens. Just kidding. There was nobody else there to see me. lol I needed an explanation for why the chairs were empty.

The Catalina mountains to Tucson's north are almost totally obscured by low lying clouds, commonly called fog. I had to increase the contrast a bit to enable you to see the mountains at all. This is just the way it looked to me in person, some of the time. and some the time the mountains disappeared completely...
Photo taken after lunch at 1:50 pm in the Parking lot of Eli's Deli at the Corner of 5th Street and Rosemont Ave. I like the Solar power generating panels over the parking of what used to be the Duffy School, across the street from the Deli. The school building now contains Tucson Unified School District (TUSD) administration offices.
It rained last night and it is still drizzling today. Rio Magnolia is flowing on Magnolia Street between Third and Speedway. It's not a high volume flow at all. It was really just drizzling in the afternoon, but it rained heavily early this morning.

The Aire Valley was once the north's power house, with its 8,000MW of coal fired power stations and Big K - Kellingley colliery. Now, 2 out of 3 power stations are shut, along with Big K and Drax burns mostly biomass. 66057 is crossing the Aire and Calder navigation with the 10:15 Immingham - Drax biomass working. Passing the colliery site, which over the years loaded the coal into barges to transport it to Ferrybridge power station along the Aire and Calder.
The sun partially blocked by a few metal arms of an eletricity transmission tower provided a shot that bodes well with a solar power theme.
This was taken just outside Chelmsford, Essex on a wintry evening. I thought I was the only one out there, but ironically when we had a club competition, I entered this into the print comp and another member entered into the DPI with the same title.
There was just something about the momentary cloud formation in conjunction the the solar farm that made me reach for my camera.

Se tem uma coisa com a qual já me conformei é que não vou completar essa edição do Desafio nos 31 dias que planejei inicialmente (mas se der tudo certo atrasarei uns 2 dias no máximo)
Estava com essas unhas desde quinta-feira dia 19, mas simplesmente não consegui tempo de fotografar com a luz do dia Ç_Ç
Esse negócio de estágios + aulas + projetos + vida acabou tomando mais tempo do que eu imaginava, enfim...
Usei como base o The Black Knight (Butter London), que é um glitter M.A.R.A.V.I.L.H.O.S.O. e espero repetir sozinho em breve! Foram duas camadas, fácil de aplicar e limpar os cantinhos e, justamente por ter vários glitters de cores diferentes, deu uma profundidade e brilho muito legal à galáxia.
Por cima esponjei com o Bala de Coco (Vult), Vert Chlorophylle (Bourjois), Solar Power (ChG), Success Azure (Bourjois) e Creative Fantasy (ChG). Fiz as bolotas com o Vult, alguns detalhes em preto com o Sylvia (Granado), cobri tudo com o Star (Risqué) e finalizei com o topcoat da Ideal.
Tirei hoje essa esmaltação logo depois da foto e já estou fazendo a unha 20, Water Marble, mas acredito que só vá conseguir fotografá-la amanhã cedo, então teremos duas fotos, as unhas 20 e 21 XD

Solar Impulse, the solar aircraft built in Switzerland to circle the globe, took off in the early morning on May 2nd this year at Moffett Federal Airfield at NASA Ames in Mountain View, California. I got an invite to witness this historic journey around the world.
Founders and pilots Bertrand Piccard and André Borschberg first addressed the press. André climbed into the cockpit for this leg to Phoenix, Arizona. The flight took 16 hours. I had a big tripod with me and could blend in with the press to get a prime spot for takeoff. Preparations were long, but the actual takeoff happened very quiet and sudden. I took this shot at the time of take-off at 5am in the morning.
Bertrand and André want us to use more clean energies. In their word, they want to push the transition to renewable energy resources. Very inspiring!
The aircraft has a wingspan bigger than a Boeing 747, but weights just 2 tons instead of 400 tons. To preserve weight and aerodynamics, this aircraft has no landing gears on the side. People hold the aircraft level on long poles until it gains enough speed. More info on this historic flight at www.solarimpulse.com
I processed a balanced HDR photo from a RAW exposure, and desaturated the image.

A wind turbine, or alternatively referred to as a wind energy converter, is a device that converts the wind's kinetic energy into electrical energy. Wind turbines are manufactured in a wide range of vertical and horizontal axis. Click on image for best view and to see the pump jacks.
These are near St. Jo, Texas.

A bit of a throwaway shot today as it's been a really busy day and I've not really had time to get out and so any photography and I've run out of steam now!
I put up an Ikea shelving system for the garden today...so you'll forgive my tiredness ;-) Actually, after a bit of a false start it went up pretty well and Debbie then filled it up with all the empty pots and bits and pieces that have been littering the garden. She also put up these solar powered lanterns which are there to help me with seeing what I'm doing in the bin area as it gets quite dark in the garden during the winter evenings.
It also gave me the chance to start practising the Nick Carver Precision Method for metering exposure settings...more for when using film cameras, but perfectly acceptable to use on digital cameras as well, as I did here with the Sony A6000. I set the camera exposure to meter the lanterns tones at between Medium Light and Very Light and got this excellent exposure...so it definitely works...and I'm not even close to half way through the course yet!
Off grid solar power systems, also known as standalone solar power is a great solution for those who are unable to connect to the local electricity network, face high grid connection costs, or those who are simply looking to be completely power independent. An off grid solar power system typically costs two to three times the price of a grid connect solar power system, and while being off the grid sounds great it might not be the most practical solution if you can connect to the grid. Read more about grid-connected solar power systems here. Off grid system pricing starts at around $15,000 (which would power a small summer time batch), so for those who are currently not connected to an electricity network and to do so would cost over $15,000 then an off grid solar power system is a great option. The reason why off-grid systems are quite a bit more expensive is because of the batteries and the system controlling the batteries. Although battery technology is constantly improving and getting a lot cheaper. Read more here> - See more at: www.mysolarquotes.co.nz/about-solar-power/residential/abo...
