Not much wind, but it's not often you get head-on kite shots with snow-capped mountains in the background, so I won't complain ;) Check out some of the beautiful sunset backgrounds later in the day!
There's about 550 images in total, so make sure you page through all the shots in both the 13 and 10 megapixel galleries.
These are unprocessed proof images, so they're not totally on kilter, uncorrected for tone and color, and not always well composed. All these issues are normal and correctable. In some cases I've cropped quite close for impact, but I'll let you know if it's not a good candidate for enlargement.
You're welcome to save and print these files for personal use. You'll get reasonably good results at print sizes up to 4 by 6 inches. Contact me regarding publication or commercial usages
The largest uploaded 'original' version of each image on this website is less than 1 megapixel - about 1/16 of the actual image I get from the camera and use as the basis for custom-made prints
Larger, hand-crafted prints to 16 by 24 inches, or multiple copies to a total of ~400 square inches, are available for $75. I spend an hour or more working with each image to leverage every bit of emotion, color and detail, assuring your satisfaction
