Tudor St Andries Brugge

Maybe the last beautiful day to fly kites this month....  We discovered this interesting place surrounded by the woods, while we were on our way home from Damme. A meadow with two cows was the only place that we could launch our kites.   This is the result!

Brighton

ON my way to the international kite festival in Portsmouth, I stopped at Brighton.   What a good decision!    Very very nice place with a lot of small stores and restaurants.    Here some pictures of the coastal area including the (too touristic) Palace Pier...

Flanders fieds

Flanders fields seen from a camera hanging under a kite at 150 meter high, If you recognize this place... please let me know.  Should be near Diksmuide and Vladslo

Badboot

The 'badboot' in Antwerp.

To make these pictures, I used a camera (Canon G15) lifted at 150 meter high by a kite (strandvlieger).This technique is called Kite aerial photography (KAP). The kite was this time attached to Frank's rokkaku kite an secured to my body.  In this case the lifting power was produced by a red Maxi Dopero.

The camera rotates and is triggered automatically, but I can take over all functionalities from the ground.   Yes, I do see what the camera is shooting (video downlink) .

't Schor

After work, I went back to Paal, a beautiful place not that far from my home town Antwerp for a late afternoon shooting of a restaurant 't Schor'.  I think this is a very unique place for a restaurant.   I should go there more often...
A few other places in the neighborhood worthwhile to visit:
- Paal
- Rilland
- Landscape
- Domburg
- Zierikzee 
- T Schor
- T Land van Saefthinge
