This week's theme wasn't easy at all since I don't have a concrete idea under the term technology... So after giving it some thought I decided to use some skiing pics (oh, not again!!!) because I am aware technology plays a decisive role in making this sport not only possible but also a safe one as well.
Let me begin with my bindings: glittering gold, just what a gal needs on the slopes- with matching golden skis of course! I remember the old ones with a leather strap, the ones which are nowadays used as decoration. New, improved technology increases skiing comfort and stability, or so they say, I am simply pleased skis are nowadays so easy to put on.
I am amazed that technology makes this sort of lifts possible. It's here where I notice technology is moving faster than the high-speed ski lifts .Below is the Saulire cable car with capacity for 140 people and it all hangs from a cable...
Pretty cool technology if you ask me! =)
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, technology. But I doubt I'd ever step into a thing like that big box... Eww, no!
ReplyDeleteMine's up too.
Cool pics showing how technology is used in sport.
ReplyDeleteI went in a similar cable car in Rio which took us up the Sugar Loaf Mountain. in fact it is the one used in the film 'Moonraker'.
Great photo choice for technology. . . I'll enjoy the photos, y'all can be the ones to step in the boxes.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. My grandchildren in Oregon love to ski and snowboard. they go to Mt. Hood.
ReplyDeleteI'm up early too.
I agree good choices to show how technology is just a BROAD term that encompasses SO MUCH.
ReplyDeletemine's up too.
Very cool and very fun choices!
ReplyDeleteMine is up too.
Ah, my son is a fan of such technology also- he just got back from the Rocky Mountains in Denver, Colorado.
ReplyDeleteI love the ski photo!
I'm up early too. :)
Nice ski and that lift is awesome.
ReplyDeleteMine is up too.
Wow! That's fantastic!
ReplyDeleteOh, I miss skiing so much!! Now I need to go up north just to ski ;).
ReplyDeleteIt's hard for me to fathom how things got built without modern technology!!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad skiing is safer now. They may even have technology in the lodge. One of my friends has a remote control for his fireplace!
ReplyDeleteI'm grateful for the advance technology in the area of skiing. We love to ski a couple of time in the winter. Thanks for sharing. What a great idea.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend :)
Oh ! a golden girl, very chic, only diamonds are missing ! and the hanging cabine looks like a lifted up bus lol ! But it's true in this sport amazing things have been invented ! The sticks, cloths, shoes everything. It's a very good idea of you, all others mostly show TV or mobiles. Me too, but also digged in the past.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link, very kind of you, I looked up the templates, but for my colored temperament they are too soft, lol !
Great photos! Technology has certainly advanced many sports, making them safer.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and have a good weekend. :)
Well you did good in picking out photos for this week's theme!
ReplyDeleteHappy Saturday!
Nicely done. Using sports to connect technology never crossed my mind.
ReplyDeleteCheers!
So sorry. Blogger has not been very good to me. Can't understand why this is happening. Annonymous message above is from me.
ReplyDeleteThe technology really helps keep to the slopes but I think you still have to factor in the human side of it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by!
Happy Saturday!
What were you babbling about, this is a wonderful post about technology!!!!
ReplyDeleteNo, not wonderful, excellent, brilliant :-)
Even for me that don't like snow... *lol*
No matter how technologically advanced skiing gets I will never be able to get down the side of a mountain while still being upright!
ReplyDeleteI like your different "take" on technology. So interesting!
ReplyDeleteMine is up now..
Happy Saturday to you!
Oh yes, I remember the old leather bindings. I hadn't even thought about the vastly improved technology of skis, but you are so right. This was a great post.
ReplyDeletemar - you have done an awesome job! Technology has come a long ways up in those hills with snow! Great job. I'm impressed!
ReplyDeleteI think these are wonderful pictures to this week's theme. Thank you for sharing...
ReplyDeleteHappy Saturday.:)

Pretty cool pics for the hunt. I've never been skiing, but it looks like fun. Thanks for stopping by my blog.
ReplyDeleteNice skis! Technology certainly has made the sport safer. Unfortunately for us, the weather has been too balmy to hit the slopes :( Hopy you're having better luck! Happy Hunting :)
ReplyDeleteI think these are GREAT technology pics Mar! At least you were able to come up with something more intersting than phones and computers! Unlike me. LOL!
ReplyDeleteSharp skis.
ReplyDeleteI would be too frightened to get on the lift though - I am so scared of heights.
Be careful on the slopes.
And thanks for the lovely comment.
Waving at you from New York,
Frances

ReplyDeleteMy balance is not good:-(

ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by.
Technology is changing everything nowadays. :-)
ReplyDeleteSkis and I don't mix well.. or should I say the ski lifts and I don't work well together. These look very high tech to me.
ReplyDeleteMine is up too.
Looks like great technology. When I last skied it was the open chair lifts. Waaaa!
ReplyDeleteYou did good, Mar! Both pictures certainly cover some forem of Technology, for sure!
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a lovely time on your trip...Do you leave tomorrow? Or Monday...I don't remember what you said....Anyway...you will be missed, as always!
