A VERY busy beach, and I enjoyed watching these kite boarders at Boracay. My friend took lessons for 3 days, and this was taken as she was shutting down after the second session.

This is something that's commonly seen here on most every shoreline, near the beach and on the lake!
Only difference is, that we don't have any mountain background and we don't have such a lovely color in the water.

I really like the action and colorfull kites and they sure do give a fun effect.
I really like the view you give here from the bright yellow kite onto the water, where the action is!

Cheers,
Anneke

Dear Karen,
This is a beautiful and colorful picture.
You have created her a great depth.
In my neighbourhood, on the North Sea beach, you also can see this kind of sport very often.
I like it very much!

TFS and greetings from Netherlands,

Hi Karen
Nice and colorful the shot is well done the way you always do.
Those kites left in the sky look like pelicans taking off.
Very nice scenery.

Hi Karen, Good and very original image. Those kites beyond the people looks so much like large gulls. Nature can teach us about most modern things for sure. Good cropping and presentation. TFS. Murray.

Hello Karen,
Perfect blue tones and well contrasted warm colors of kite.
Joyful atmosfer you have taken

Quite a good composition and a nice photo. I like the colour ant texture of the sea under a fresh wind and of course the kite is a strong focal point. Well done,

You captured the beauty of Boracay in this photo. I like the values of your cloudy sky, the color of the water partly showing cloud shadows and sunlight and the colorful foreground.

I was in Iloilo, at the time you took this picture.

Hello Karen
Spectacular view indeed, enhanced by the warm colors of foreground.
I had the opportunity to watch these guys jump up to 40 feet high in Florida.
The mood here is to extreme sport and excitement!
Thanks for your kind words.

Hello Karen.
This sport is very popular in Ireland ... but we do not have such a great weather compare to Philippines.
Great colours here and well managed point of view.
