Great Lakes Kite Festival

Best LARGE . A kite boarder (surfer?) at play, during the 20th Great Lakes Kite Festival at Grand Haven State Park. I took dozens of pictures of this guy yesterday; this is by far the best photo, though hardly his most impressive jump. I rather like those gaudy pantaloons. The kite show continues today, by the way; if you can make it, it's definitely worth a trip. And a great excuse to walk the beach. A different crop .
