Ah, ça se rapproche de chez moi !! Alors là, c'est toi sur le parapente ou c'est toi qui prend la photo ? Et si c'est le cas est-tu toi-même en vol, car c'est l'impression que cela donne (en tout cas ça ne semble pas être le décollage), et nous on est avec eux... à travers ta photo qui restitue bien la sensation de liberté que l'on doit éprouver.

@Evelyne Dubos: En effet c'est plus pres :) Ils viennent de decoller mais je suis sur la pente en premier plan. Voler allonger sous une aile delta au-dessus des cretes en compagnie de vautours des pyrenees est un souvenir inoubliable.

This is a great shot. I bet there's a hang gliding magazine that would pay to use this photo. Nice composition, plus I can sense the movement. Nice job.
