Taken by the Wind
Relaxing day down at St Kilda beach and Port Melbourne taking photos today. I really enjoyed it because it was a location i don’t visit often. Saw all these kite surfers getting around the bay which was fantastic to watch.
If anyone is interested in learning how to kite surf the company that runs these lessons is called Melbourne Kiteboarding Academy. I would love to try it myself, looks like a blast.

Nice photo, love the contrast and expression in the photo, and i like the way you framed the others in the air in the shot too. I like to see the kiteboarders down at St Kilda too. When I was there recently I had my kids so couldn’t get close enough, but it’s a very nice spot. Next time you are there have a gelati at 7Apple, they do the best!
Hi,
Thank you for all your positive feedback i really do appreciate you taking the time to do that. It is really great yes to see them all in action and i wonder how they dont get their strings mixed up sometimes! Im thinking of going back down next week so i will try 7apple as im sure its as good as you say. I will give Lightroom a try as soon as i get around to it and see how i go but im sure it will take me a little while before im any good as it. Oh well its fun to learn. Thanks again for all your comments and ill see you around.

Yes, it takes some skill to kite surf! You take some really great photos, I enjoyed looking at them. Here is the link to 7apple so you can find it: http://www.7applesgelato.com/ The fruity ones are awesome!
If you get Lightroom google Scott Kelby, I learned everything I know from his book! After that I just played around to get different effects.
All the best. I look forward to seeing more of your photography!
