The Kite
The swimmers in the sea are surfers, one of whom we saw yesterday. We are looking towards the Old Town of Menton and Italy beyond.
'Throw your dreams into space like a kite, and you do not know what it will bring back, a new life, a new friend, a new love, a new country.'

This is a really great photo that speaks volumes! I bet that family would just love a copy of it. Its one of those family moments that will never be the same.

We both post about kite sports today, that's fun! - and I can see that there is more than one surfer out there waiting for a wave.
ReplyDeleteKiting (does one say that ?) is a sport to do at this beginning of the year, it's full of promises ! according to this quote.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice weather, a so pleasant light, my Jilly ! That can give good mood ! Bises.
I love the way the eye follows the kite upward. The result is a feeling of lightness and joy.
ReplyDeleteThis is a timeless image.
ReplyDeleteVery nice Jilly. I always love to see pictures on Menton and Italy in the background.
ReplyDeleteYou really do your best to make us decide for a new visit! The blue sky, some ten degrees warmer than in Paris ... and I guess the "rain season" is over?
ReplyDeleteHappy 2010 dear Jilly!
