I wish I had turned this into the triangle competition instead. I did use a little advanced editing (dodging/burning) but even without it, I think this image is far superior to the one I submitted for the contest.
Unfortunately I am new to editing photos and didn't want to miss the deadline on my frist contest, so I submitted the other instead.
Ok i'm removing dark kite from my favorites. I want dak kite 2 intstead. Even better than the original. My bigggest complaint was that the sillouett blended in a bit too much. Now you fixed it and I have none. Very nice job.
