It's always fun to watch kit flyers along the lakeshore - a nice sign of spring.
Thanks for your wonderful response to yesterday's walkway along the lake! I so appreciate it! Good turning point in our project and think the end will be in sight by Monday. Fingers crossed!
After much advice from friends Ross, Lisa, Jane, Eric, and Elaine...here's an improved wider angle crop (the one here already had much of their advice enacted) on flickr, along with the original and a few attempts in between. It takes a lot to get it right! https://www.flickr.com/photos/taffyraphael/14151525713/
Wow, what strong use of SC and composition, a very interesting image, it´s like that kite had a positive spirit that goes on flying high even though all things are against it, sky is grey and everything is gloomy but the kite goes on flying high
Just beautiful, Taffy, and a spirited flight to oversee the city! (It took a moment to find the string, but it gives a sense of the flyer's success and location)
I know SC gets a bad press, but used in the right place like here, I think it's a great editing tool! This has such a feel of freedom and escapism, just wonderful! Fav.
Another winner Taffy! Your use of SC for the kite is brilliant! I just started playing with selective color and it can be so effective and fun for the right image.
