Janice, What a great shot. You obviously took care with the composition and it was very clever of you to arrange the colours to be so complimentary. The boat on the water is wonderfully placed to give perspective.

well framed action shot

How cool is that? Should take a less expensive camera up and get a 360 view. Beautiful scenery that far up So you didn't go up yourself?

Yes impressive viewpoint looking down on the yacht.
The glider man doesn't seem to be exerting himself at all.
Great shot.

I'm standing on an extinct volcano (1 of 50 in Auckland) called North Head at Devonport. Great view from up there to see the yachts sailing and paragliders taking off!!

Great shot, Janice - how on earth did you get this view?
