 Went to the beach for a birthday party. One of the fellow party goers was flying a kite. I looked up and took a shot. After I took it I figured it represented "AIR". Didn't do any fancy editing.

Nice simple composition. I like the way the cloud areas curve. The kite really stands out against it. You can even see the string!

Side note:
I noticed on my top monitor the sky appears a bit lavender and on the laptop display it appears a more true, sky blue.

crop is too loose, square doesn't make sense to me, too. white balance is a little off, too much greens and magentas overall. much oversharpened.
