      dreamy scene, treatment and atmosphere
      unique creativity and perfection at the details
      such a tender optimism!
      sometimes we raise our Dream in the middle of the sky
      just like a joyous little kite,
      our wish to be it's tail flying free in the air...

      Aw, thank you guys for the generousl comments - they were much enjoyed :-)

      Thank you! I feel a bit embarrassed at entering all these competitions - but it is sooooo much easier to do collages/manipulations when you are working with a starter image. I don't know why that is, but it makes a very big difference :-)

      Ah, yes, joys of youth AND the joys of an old, bald guy that has too many kites and not enough sense to keep his kites and cameras separate! *sigh* oh well.... this is great work again, I love the tones and the position of our flyer. Nice work, again!

      I am so proud I know someone who sends their cams up on kites and takes wonderous pix of the world below. This young man may not look exactly like you on the outside, but I think he looks a lot like you on the inside :o)
      Many thanks indeed pinky!

      this is really poetic and beautiful,
      I love the kite's shadow, and the general work you did with this image.
