In the clouds
Comments by Jan Bjorklund on Sat, 08/15/09 14:08 A real sense of vastness created between the fragile form of the parasail and the rugged nature of the mountains... Any idea how high that the individual on the parasail might be? Comments by John Leigh on Sat, 08/15/09 16:16 Jan, thanks for the comment, that's exactly what I was trying to do. I would guess the parasail was perhaps 500 meters above the valley floor. Comments by Dan Rubin on Sun, 08/16/09 16:17 Great shot! Comments by John Leigh on Mon, 08/17/09 10:38 Thank you! Comments by Kara Williams on Mon, 08/17/09 22:55 The combination of the angry clouds and the rugged snow-capped mountains certainly emphasize the frailness of the parasail. So you've certainly achieved your objective in this photo. I've parasailed (above water) in Mexico and that was exhilarating enough. I can't imagine landing in this cold and rugged terrain.
