Photographer's Note

Kitesurfing or Kiteboarding is an adventure surface water sport that has been described as combining wakeboarding, windsurfing, surfing, paragliding, and gymnastics into one extreme sport. Kitesurfing harnesses the power of the wind to propel a rider across the water on a small surfboard or a kiteboard (similar to a wakeboard). The terms kiteboarding and kitesurfing are interchangeable. There are a number of different styles of kiteboarding, including freestyle, freeride, downwinders, speed, course racing, wakestyle, jumping and wave-riding which is focused on kitesurfing big waves using a directional board similar to a surfboard.

Hi Vincent
I think it was really important that you included the 2nd person in the background. It helps for depth, but also for that secondary subject, as the eye naturally now drifts over that side. Its as if that 2nd person completes the scene, and the foreground subjects start the scene.
Well done
Cheers
Craig

Hello Vincent!
The wind is palpable here as the sail ballons out. The eprson in the BG though small, is an important addition to the scene. Well done!
With Regards
Angshu
