Taking Flight

Best LARGE . A kite boarder (surfer?) at play, during the 20th Great Lakes Kite Festival at Grand Haven State Park. I took dozens of pictures of this guy yesterday; this is by far the best photo, though hardly his most impressive jump. I rather like those gaudy pantaloons. The kite show continues today, by the way; if you can make it, it's definitely worth a trip. And a great excuse to walk the beach. A different crop .

Posting this a day late: Had an equipment failure yesterday. All better today; thanks for asking. This day's photos were a deliberate effort to capture birds in flight. I had some success, but wasn't really satisfied. ========== This photograph is an outtake from my 2012 photo-a-day project, 366 Snaps . Number of project photos taken: 91 Title of " roll :" Sparrows & Starlings Other photos taken on 5/7/2012: The Daily Flower Census shows that we had Irises, Columbines, and Cranesbill open a year back. And that our flowers-in-planters had largely survived the easy 2011-12 winter.
