Skywatch #9 -- Rainbow Ribbons



A man at a car show was flying his kite. I liked the rainbow ribbon effect. It was windy enough to keep the kite up all afternoon, and he was able to let it go up very high. I didn't know if I could catch it because it was bobbing and weaving every time I took aim. This is not Photoshopped. The sky was exactly this clear and blue!

Check out Welcome to Wiggers World for more Skywatch photos.

A KITE

I often sit and wish that I
Could be a kite up in the sky,
And ride upon the breeze and go,
Whichever way I chanced to blow.

That is SOOOO pretty, Jane Marie! Looks kind of like a stained glass window flying high in the sky, doesn't it? :)

A colorful kite picture. Occasionally we like to go to the Penninsula on Lake Erie, and there is a special spot on the beach where all the kite flyers go. They put on quite a show.
