Looking Backby ~vindego

Photography / Animals, Plants & Nature / Landscapes

For all those times I have stood on a mountain top wondering what it would be like to fly......
So here I am a few thousand feet above the valley floor with a crisp, clear unrestricted view back to the mountain. Gosh it's beautiful from here!

The beauty of a paraglider... no motor, no windows.
Just the sound of the wind, the smell of the mountains and 360 degrees of unrestricted views..... Ahhhh!

Yup. First time I flew with the new camera

Even though I had a lanyard on it so it couldn't fall all the way to the ground I still had a death grip on it while it was out of the bag, lol

. Was a pretty calm flight so I could take my hands off the controls for a bit... even still, one can still steer them by shifting ones weight. I don't take the big camera with though if I know the air will be rough, usually isn't enough time or wise to take ones hands off the controls in active conditions.

Thanks!
