Some of the things Aimee and I see when we walk down the coast can be tres fascinating , like yesterday for instance looking up and seeing someone flying above and keep going on up, up, up into the heavens, in fact when I downloaded the images the last one made me think of Pegasus flying a touch too near to the sun. It's called 'para-motor flying' and this short video shows that depending on where you do it, the views can be spectacular..it's a little too much 'awesomeness' pour moi, but it was fun to stand, both feet on the ground and watch (you might have to click on the last one to see him disappearing into the clouds). It's a little chilly in Perth today 23C and a few showers, perfect for catching up with posts I've missed, so see you on the blogsphere, have a good day.....!

Do I get to be the first?
ReplyDeleteMakes smashing photos, don't you wish we could be birds and spread our wings?
:-) First!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAltos cielos para surcarlos...
ReplyDeleteSaludos y buen fin de semana.
I like to look at them while being lying on a beach or on grass. Even this way, they give me vertigo!
ReplyDeleteWish I had the courage to do it! The closest I've come is a balloon ride and it was wonderful to be able to look the eagle in the eye! Terrific captures!
ReplyDeleteSylvia
No way in the world could I do that! The screams would be heard all over the city!!
ReplyDeleteWe have done parasailing while towed by a boat. Doing it in free flight would be liberating.
ReplyDeleteAdmire the courage, as I am not sure whether I own that much. Always a hand full of air beneath. Please have a good Sunday.
ReplyDeleteUp Up and away ... how lovely to fly up in amongst those beautiful powder puff clouds.
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy your cooler days Grace because you have certainly had a lo...ng hot Summer.
That looks like fun. I would like to think I would try it but I doubt it.
ReplyDeleteI am glad there are people who are willing to do it...it would not be me! Awesome shots though - proving once again that you must never leave home without your camera!
ReplyDeleteBonza photos. No thanks, i prefer my feet planted firmly on solid ground :-).
ReplyDeleteInteresting how chilly is always relative, Grace.
ReplyDeleteOMG! Not for me I'm afraid. But what great adventures you have on your walks Grace.
ReplyDeleteWow, he certainly is up there!
ReplyDeleteI'll make do with viewing life from down here on the gound, thanks.
ReplyDeletegorgeous pictures but honestly, I do not want to be up there !
ReplyDeletehave a happy sunday
Is that you up there Grace?
ReplyDeleteI've just got one thing to say about that - AAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!
ReplyDeleteI was going to ask if you had ever done that, but I should have known better, 'cause you're smart like I am and like to stay grounded even if the rest of the world is high as a kite!
ReplyDeletebrrrr, i bet it was super cold up there.
ReplyDeleteFly higher but, be careful Icarus, don´t go too close to the sun...
ReplyDeleteGreat shot! I really like it.
what great shots these are, Gracie, well done!
