Yeah, just took our breath away when we saw our shots on a computer screen rather than the small lcd on the camera.

I am truly amazed and grateful for all the compliments. Thank you all for sharing your compliments and it has been a joy to share this photo with so many.
Carla W., I think our new KAP rig KAPN/W 5.0 is working and I would certainly have to give you half the credit here for this photo. Since we work as a team mostly when I KAP. After all, you do the kite handling and put the kite into position.
What causes the fractured textured rocks? I'm not sure except for incredible geologic forces. It reminds me of windshield glass as it starts to break. Like crystals. I will leave it for the geologists. Carla saw the rocks from the road and luckily we pulled into Coledale Beach Australia.
This photo was made by suspending a camera from a kite line using a Kite Aerial Photography rig that I made. See more at the Flickr KAP group.

Hi Tom,
boy, I've missed a lot of great KAP photos and this is one of them - amazing textures and colors!
Alas, I found it because someone just recently left a comment on one of our KAP photos saying he'd seen it (along with many other Flickr photos) illegally copied at stashy.com. I saw a few other KAP ones there including this one, and wanted to let you know.
The stashy copy is here: www.stashy.com/url/13853/at-the-edge/
The related Flickr discussion is here: www.flickr.com/help/forum/en-us/76874/ .
Sigh.... sorry to be the bearer of bad news on such a nice photo. ;o/
