What a fantastic experience!

We were invited to be a part of 7. Kreativni dani Fausta Vrančića - a 3 day creative happening on the island of Prvić, Croatia. We had a presentation of kite aerial photography, we helped a Croatian kite club organize a kite workshop, we did some KAP, we crashed some kites into the sea, we met some amazing people ... it was simply unforgettable.

Click here and read all about it - the kite aerial photos of this beautiful island are really amazing!

    Your work is always great, and this session gave some brilliant results. Sorry to see that you had a disaster with your new New Zealand-designed kite, but the trusty flowform certainly gave you the goods. Well done!

    Thanks! :-)

    the disaster of course had nothing to do with New Zealand ... just lack of skill and terribly turbulent wind ...

    if maybe next spring you want to cross the Adriatic and maybe with the speed achieved arrive to the sea of Liguria... next Festival del Vento Spotorno... march 2020

    You mentioned some kites landed in the sea. I have been flying for 10 years, but when working from small flying areas or boats, I have been in trouble. I find that deltas and co-nynes slowly sink and turn up-side down, so that they want to fly to the bottom when I pull on the string. Now, I tie an empty water bottle on my kite in an out of the way place, that's enough to keep it on the surface. A bottle is a very light kite flotation device.

    @CGKiteman - thanks.

    @Sky Hi Point - That's a great solution! :-)

    Great photos of an amazing location. Did you use a polarising filter for these?

  • KAP_JasaKAP_Jasa

    Thanks!

    No filter - just an old Canon PowerShot A801 :-)
