it's a good shot but as you said yourself it would be really good if the kite was fully in the frame. looks like a damn good sport by the way!

I totally want to try it someday, but reading about all the risks involved is slightly unsettling.

a comment on the blog itself - it's nicely designed - how do you get that special alt text?

thanks Joe[y]. i'm not too keen on javascript, but i guess if somebody has it disabled then regular alt text will appear anyway, i assume.

Fun fun stuff throughout your site - love the comments on bees and getting close to them. I've become slightly less afraid of them after numerous times getting the camera up on them... then again - they turn ugly every so often... Spiders creep me out in a similar way - although why I keep taking photos of them I don't know... Maybe I'm nuts.

Anyway - yeah - I agree with numerous people pointing out that you framed that shot just right. The angle is great and gives it that much more of an action feel to it. Love the catching air bit - great that you caught that moment. Unfortunately you didn't get the ultimate perfect shot with the kite - but it's darn close!

Awesome, have commented :-)

By the way, have you noticed the layout seems to go out of whack on the comments page? Using firefox 1.5 anyway... shout if you want me to get a screenshot.

Take it easy,
Dave.
