One of my favorite pastimes as a child...kite flying...although I never got to do it into an ocean breeze as did these lucky youngsters! And, no, I didn't wait to see the inevitable tangle :) Portsmouth, NH. :)PJ

The question is not what you look at, but what you see ~ Marcel Proust
Those three kites are also destined for the Bermuda Triangle for kites. The colors are so great. You make me high with this beautiful photo. I feel like I am floating. Have a good day and it is ok to be a kid again. They are so cool as you are.

I too loved to fly a kite as a young lad that was just b4 the 2 string stunt kites appeared .. shall we go fly a kite Miss Mary Poppins ?
Nice shot which brings fond memories PJ. :o)

This is truly lovely. The deep blue sky really makes those kites stand out so well. It also brings back nice memories of flying kites with my children when they were young, and even further back still trying to make a kite out of brown paper string and canes!! Thanks for bringing back nice memories and for an outstanding capture. Fav'd and thank you for sharing!

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
So who doesn't like colorful kites against a bright blue sky? A wonderful shot, PJ, and an even better DT!

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life.
Beautiful image against a wonderful sky. I remember making a kite in Woodwork at school, taking it out on the first breezy day and it flying high into the air and then smashing into the ground and breaking apart!! lol

Very nice shot! Hey, man. Go fly a kite. No, really. We need to do the things we loved as a child ever so often. Me, I broke down the other day and bought me a Schwinn Stingray. A kite with a Jolly Roger on it is on my to-do list.

I was sad because I had no shoes until I met a man who had no feet... so I says to him, "Hey brother, ya wanna sell those shoes?"
~ Great & colorful shot! I recall going to Long Beach Island NJ every summer as a kid and we'd go to a store and get our summer kite to fly at the beach. Never lasted that long though, lol. Thanks for the memories PJ!

Those kites make a great subject. Or maybe your photo skills make the kites a great subject, either way nice work.

I can't believe how perfect the sky is. A solid consistent blue border to border, no clouds, birds or planes. Wow!
This would be a great poster for a kite advertisement.
Great shot, PJ.

Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought to myself, where the heck is the ceiling.

Brilliant colors... the absolute essence of 'summer fun'! In fact, open your dictionary to the word 'summer' and you'll see this picture. Yes!
