This blog is about photography and not paragliding but I just have to post some 'flying' photos.
In winter the sun is low and doesn't create much warmth. So most of our flying adventures are of the 'hike & fly' type. We hike up a mountain with our wings and, well, fly down again. While doing this from one of my favorite sites, Elk Mountain in the Chilliwack Valley, I noticed an intriguing pattern below. Seen from above the deciduous trees looked like a delicate arrangement of ice flowers. On the next flight I took my camera, flew out directly over trees and took lots photos. Most paraglider pilots prefer more active and rising air but for 'hands-off' photography the calm February air was perfect!
