Like that Les. Possibly a touch tight in the frame but not a biggie.

Thanks Paul, I did look at giving the kite more space, but I felt he was starting to get lost in the BG, but I take your point

On a larger image size, a bit more space works better.

Another cracker and again lovely colours. I'd be like a cheshire cat if I had taken them.

Amazing shot

I really like the way its wing tips are right up in opposite corners of the shot, that just me though??

Taken on too short a lens, Fracster says so..

I've just looked at your other kite photos and you are a truly jammy bugger Nice work
