Description

The "Air" is very hard to capture! Here I tried to catch some childhood memories, along with the wind...funnily enough, I never did have a box-kite, but I always wanted one! :-)>

Cam, Great composition! I like the way the hand breaks the frame as if the "viewer" is reaching into the image for the kite! You do a good job moving the eye around to the focus of the piece with your shadows in the clouds and the contrast with the hand/arm. I don't think you could've added anything else that would have increased the value to this. It's perfect! :) retrocity

Well I think it's all been said!! This really is an excellent image Cam & expresses that feeling of reaching out for the dream so well.

Ahhh - the memories this lovely skilled render taps into - stirring the caldron of an era long ago vanished - the innocence and careless world of our childhood. I like you Cameron, had about 3 or 4 experiences with kite flying, and in retrospect, also wished for the more fancy box kite. Thanks for giving my mind a needed jolt to times of such playful moments when nothing mattered but the happy event itself.

Loads of yearning in the image and the comments. The faint mottle effect does give a slight tangabile feel for the presence of air. To have and to hold cannot be, still it is with us always. How's about getting the guys to try and create their own Fifth Element!.
