A well filled frame and a fine composition. A bit lowkey to give the right weather impression I guess. But this makes me curious, shouldn´t he have something to stand on?

They do this at Botany Bay, near Sydney too. Great fun i bet. You have captured this very well Yitzhak. A great angle. The sea looks quite rough aswell. Well done.

Very nice image Itzik... I love it.. The wind seemed to be very strong. different from your usual shot. But I like the composition here. Very well done.

Yitzak great capture. I like the darkness of the picture. The sun on the glider is great. And the waves are a great detail and make the picture. Very well done.

Great shot, Yitzhak. The darker sky and sea, contrast nicely with the lighter waves and sand. I like the way you captured the glider, just as it lifted off from the beach. Well framed.

This is nice Yitzhak. It looks like you desaturated the sky - i like it. You hace cropped the photo really nice and leeting your subject fill the frame. I like the some what muted colours, it goes well with the mood of the ocean. I can really imagen my self being the one holding the camera here. The picture seem so close, as if i actually was there.

Very nice.

A fine capture with a good perspective. Well shot from a good angle

By the way ski gliding is a branch of this same sport.

Yitzak great capture. The wind seemed to be very strong. different from your usual shot. But I like the composition here. Very well done.

Very good shot, Yitzhak. The man, the glider and the forces of nature. The main subject is nicely placed in front of the three horizontal layers of sand, water, sky (with the latter looking a bit drab). It obviously was very windy that moment. The fact that you opened a "winter beach scenes" theme makes me suspect you have more of those ;-)

I like the wide angle view you've chosen and the position of the parachute. The strong blue is not so strong as to dominate the picture; good shot.

Very well seen and composed, Yitzhak !

You could as well have titled it "Blue moon" ;-)

I like the wind effect in this photo, I also like the contrast the blue "sail" and the grey sky. Finally I like the balance between beach, sea and sky... Well seen, well framed!

I love the rough sea and the dark sky as a background in your composition - it makes the blue glider and the man to outstand on it so nicely. The sand brings the needed brightness and forms together with sky and sea wonderful colour layers. Excellent!

Another excellent shot Yitzhak. I love the way you have composed it with the three horizontal bands of sky, sea and sand. Positioning of the big sail and man at either side is great too.

Wow this really looks fun. Do you and your sons pratice this sports Itzik? Good way to frame this shot with all the horizontale lines. The photo turned out very nice considering the very grey sky.

Belle présentation pour ce sport très peut connus.
Tout ici se mélange bien avec le parachute bien détaillé et son sujet.
On obtient ainsi deux places maîtresses sur l'image.
Bien vu Yitzhak

Great shot, Yitzhak, with a great composition and the framing is very nice too . look i like your way for choose the color of the outside frame
you took it from the green color of the sea and didn't do it blue because it will be normal color of the border and you won't it to take the visual attraction from the balloon ... that is right ??

we need some shots in the summer ;0)

Great sport image. The soft colors are very good as well the high contrast. Also like the very horizontal view. It seems to be a bit of noise in the sky. It's the only thing I think it could be eliminated.

Wonderful shot, Yitzhak. Great composition. I have an impression of very strong wind. And I like how the glider breaks lines of sand, see and sky.
