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.

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.

Hummingbirds love nectar from flowers, but will come to the feeders as long as the sugar water is clean and fresh.
These RAW photos were taken while lying on my back, looking up with my camera, under the hummingbird feeder hanging from the corner of the screened-in porch. I only cropped them.

The word sustainability can be heard every day, on too many occasions. The idea of green bicycles might no be so bad. I can see the wink.

While in Yellowstone NP, we encountered several bighorn sheep ram along the hillside grazing on the grasses sticking up through the snowy landscape. The light was so very beautiful and enabled us to capture that eye, which I always find so intriguing.
This ram had some pretty beat up horns too. Made me wonder how curled they would have been if they weren't so worn down. Of course, I also thought about what stories those curls could tell about the life of this beautiful bighorn sheep.
But getting back to that eye ... there are few animals that possess such a mesmerizing eye as the BHS, at least to me. Eye contact is generally locked and sustained. Such a thrill. :-)
Thanks so much for stopping by to view and especially for sharing your thoughts and comments.

It's autumn at the 100-acre Cherry Pond in Jefferson, New Hampshire. The pond is part of the Pondicherry Wildlife Refuge, jointly owned and managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the New Hampshire Audubon, and the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department. It has been designated a National Natural Landmark.
The mountains in the background, part of the Presidential Range, include (from right to left) Mt. Washington, Mt. Clay, Mt. Jefferson, Mt. Adams, and Mt. Madison. If you zoom in, you may be able to see the weather observatory at the top of Mt. Washington.
The birds in the foreground are Canada Geese, species Branta canadensis.

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.
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.
