Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️❤️❤️
Attainable or mere buzzword?
At the end of the day after all is said and done, much more would have been said than done.
Much like this shot, it’s all about the correct perspective.
Just as more extract (supplements) does not guarantee better health, more sharpness alone does not make a better lens. It’s all about balance and the trick is actually finding that elusive balance.
It’ll be a while yet before the world swings back to any semblance of equilibrium.
Just waiting in the early morning light......
SV Tenacious is a unique tall ship designed for inclusivity, allowing both disabled and non-disabled individuals to sail together as crew members.
Launched in 2000, SV Tenacious is the largest wooden tall ship built in the UK in over a century. It was designed by Tony Castro and constructed by the Jubilee Sailing Trust (JST) to accommodate a mixed-ability crew. The ship features innovative designs such as wheelchair lifts, a speaking compass, and adjustable furniture, enabling everyone to participate fully in sailing activities.
Specifications:
Length: 65 meters (213 feet) including the bowsprit
Beam: 10.6 meters (34 feet 9 inches)
Displacement: Approximately 714 tons
Rigging: Three-masted barque with two mizzen gaffs
Maiden Voyage: The ship's first journey was from Southampton to Sark, St Helier, and Weymouth on September 1, 2000.
As of now, the ship is currently for sale, and there is an ongoing campaign to raise awareness and find a new owner or organization that can operate her sustainably. The Save Tall Ship Tenacious campaign aims to ensure that the ship continues to provide opportunities for mixed-ability sailing.

This image celebrates International Jaguar Day.
International Jaguar Day was created to raise awareness about the increasing threats facing the jaguar and the critical conservation efforts ensuring its survival from Mexico to Argentina.
Observed annually on November 29, International Jaguar Day celebrates the Americas’ largest wild cat as an umbrella species for biodiversity conservation and an icon for sustainable development and the centuries-old cultural heritage of Central and South America.
The jaguar (Panthera onca) is a large felid species and the only extant member of the genus Panthera native to the Americas. The jaguar's present range extends from Southwestern United States and Mexico in North America, across much of Central America, and south to Paraguay and northern Argentina in South America.
It is listed as Near Threatened on the IUCN Red List; and its numbers are declining. Threats include loss and fragmentation of habitat.
Overall, the jaguar is the largest native cat species of the New World and the third largest in the world. This spotted cat closely resembles the leopard, but is usually larger and sturdier. It ranges across a variety of forested and open terrains, but its preferred habitat is tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forest, swamps and wooded regions.
The jaguar enjoys swimming and is largely a solitary, opportunistic, stalk-and-ambush predator at the top of the food chain. As a keystone species it plays an important role in stabilizing ecosystems and regulating prey populations.
Artist: Emily Ding "Sustainable Fashion" Mural
The artwork features two people representing the alternatives for sustainable fashion. The woman holds a boat shuttle for handmade loom weaving and there is mending visible on the man's denim jacket. He is smelling marigolds which is a natural dye. Both figures are standing in front of mounds of clothes reminding us to support slow fashion and reduce the amount of textiles going into landfills and reduce fashion waste.

I didnt think the predicted Thunder storm would happen yesterday but as soon as i seen the flashes in the sky around half 10 i was out the house, on my bike down the road to the nearest field! unfortunately going by the flash, count the seconds to the thunder sound distance calculator they were about 20 miles away so i didnt see a any sustainable forks of lightning. this was the best i got.

The Yosemite Valley Chapel, which is the oldest structure in Yosemite Valley, was designed by Charles Geddes, an accomplished church architect from San Francisco. Geddes’ son-in-law, Samuel Thomson—with whom he collaborated on other church projects—is believed to have been the project's contractor.
In the spring of 1878, the California State Commissioners of the Yosemite Grant received an application “from the Rev. J.K. McLean and others, representing an association known as the Sunday School Union, for permission to erect a chapel in the Yosemite Valley, which should be used for "nondenominational purposes.” The application was granted, and a “handsome, tasteful building” was erected the following year near where the present Four Mile trailhead is located today. With a few minor exceptions, the Yosemite Chapel has been the park’s sole church facility since its construction 130 years ago. Purportedly, Yosemite Chapel services began June 7, 1879. It continues to serve the Park today as an interdenominational facility.
Designed in a "New England style" to seat 250 people, the chapel originally consisted of only one room, 26-by-50 feet long, with inside stud walls and rafters left exposed. Eventually an addition was added to the back of the church. Yosemite Valley Chapel is one of the oldest structures standing in Yosemite National Park and possibly the oldest church located in any of America’s national parks.
The small wood-frame structure enjoys the magnificent backdrop of El Capitan, the immense stone cliff that is Yosemite’s best known feature. The charming church is painted red, and framed in yellow beams. Crowned with a high-peaked steeple and surrounded by evergreens, it looks as though it might have been lifted straight out the Bavarian Alps and set down here.
By 1901, the surrounding “Lower Village” had nearly disappeared, so the chapel was relocated to its present location in the Old Village.
When the Ahwahnee Hotel was dedicated in August 1926, plans were unveiled for a much larger church to be built a short distance from the hotel. The plans were, however, eventually downgraded to an outdoor facility, the Church Bowl, that supplemented the pastoral needs of Valley residents and visitors for several years. Two servicemen’s chapels were temporarily improvised in the U.S. Navy Hospital at the Ahwahnee Hotel during World War II, one of them in the hotel bar. For several months during 1943 and 1944 when the Yosemite Chapel was between pastors, the Navy chapels provided the only religious services in the Valley.
In 1965 some interior restoration was completed, and the foundation was raised 3 feet to help protect the structure from periodic flooding. In spite of these efforts, the chapel sustained damage during the 1997 flood and required further restoration.
It became the first structure in Yosemite National Park placed on the National Register of Historic Places. Located in Yosemite Valley, it became listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973 based on its “simple architecture” that was representative of “a particularly fine example of the early chapels constructed in the Sierra Nevada Mountains.”

Sustainability and neo-ecology are the megatrends of our time. The topic of sustainability will be addressed in a target-group-oriented way via modular approaches consisting of keynotes, empathetic inspirations and hands-on workshop sessions, and will lead to prototypical developments of new solution strategies in the participants’ own contexts. The workshop offers a complete package based on the artistic and technological approach of Ars Electronica and the technical, economic and systemic know-how of the Institute for Clean Technology.
Sustainability Thinking is part of Ars Electronica Home Delivery SERVICES. Find out more here: ars.electronica.art/homedelivery/en/sustainabilitythinking/

Todays Our Daily Challenge: In The Future.
I had lots of different ideas for this challenge but nothing grabbed me. I finally decided to go with this idea and after I took this shot, was happy I went with it.
Trees are like the lungs of the earth, taking in the carbon dioxide and giving off oxygen via photosynthesis. One of the keys to reducing green houses gases is via the use of trees. Forestry is considered to be one of the most sustainable and renewable resources on the planet. In fact, you could say the future depends on them. In the future, thanks to much knowledge that has been gained over the years, perhaps we can hope that there will be more attention paid to how trees are used and how trees like this, in particular, that are many many years old, are a very valuable resource indeed.
