| What a wonderful feeling of being suspended in the air. "Pop" and "wow" have their place, but in this shot they are totally unnecessary, and, IMNSHO, would be intrusive and counter-productive. |

| Awesome! I wondered if you were in the air as well when I first saw it. I love the composition and muted tones of the background. And congrats on a new PB! |

Great to hit a PB again! Thanks for all the votes and comments! The shot was taken at full zoom from above the Great Dune of Pyla(highest dune in Europe). This image was the best aerial view I found from the web depicting exactly the extent of this wondrous natural formation. THat's why it felt like I was in the air as well. The place was a great find and it's a haven for parasailing and paragliding. :)
My alternative choice (below) for this challenge had brighter colour pop but I thought my actual entry reflected more the spirit of a sport in action.

| Beautiful colors and an interesting angle. Were you in the air as well? Love the composition for some reason; it has a very good feel. |

| Excellent composition. A little less cropping would put things in thirds. I like the angled horizon for this shot. 8 |

| I like the artistic tilt in this photo...it's like he's taking you along for the ride into his banking turn. Very nice! |

Is this a sport or just recreation. They are not competing for anything right?
Great photo! |
