If all goes well,this would be great,but I heard that a lady was paragliding in Colorado yesterday and fell about 40 feet and had to be taken to the hospital.Nice shot.

I love the colors and the way that para-glide-thingie kinda looks like a single parenthesis. I wanna try this, but over water deep enough to keep me from getting hurt (or drowning) if something incredibly clumsy happens. I love the colors!

This thing has an engine - you can see the blade rotating behind the seat! :)

Nice capture. I'm going to be going on my first paragliding flight (no engine) in a couple of weeks...

I'd love to do this in theory; in actuality, though, I think those days are long gone for me. What an excellent capture of this brave soul!

A really excellent shot, Carin, but nobody could make me go up with such one. :)

I've never yet trusted one of these things enough to go up in one but it does make a great capture Carin!

Great shot and that does look exciting. I went for a hot air balloon ride once and all was awesome except for the crazy landing bouncing on the ground in a basket. Ouch!

OMG, a lot better composition than I ever get when capturing these chutists in action, Carin. They just come down too fast for me. Could be this pic was taken from a long distance when it's easier to compose. But what is that round thing he's sitting on? In any event, capital shot, capital!

Looks like fun and I'm sure I would like it, but I don't take many risks anymore, except for everything I eat, LOL!

What fun! :) My best flight was in a two-seater ultralight ... like flying around in a lawnmower. Excellent shot!
