Winter Paragliding at Mangawhai Surf Beach
Last weekend for us kiwis was Queens Birthday which means that the Monday was a public holiday, we drove nearly 4 hours up north to my home and spent a bit of time at the surf beach people watching. Such a fine sunny early Winter's day, lots of people about one of which was this paraglider who was trying to catch a little bit of wind but I don't think he was very successful as shortly after this everything was packed away. Nevertheless we enjoyed our time away but as always it's nice to get back to where I now am.

Somehow your photos make it look a lot warmer that it feels to me.
oh, what a lovely place. Looks fun with those paragliders :)
There's this one beach near us where once in a while we get to see a paraglider land on the beach. It's always a treat whenever we see them do that. :)
terrific image. That pink glider agains the backdrop of cliffs - superb.
A great photo-opportunity!!
Beautiful beach. It must be cold paragliding in Winter.
Have a good weekend!

The pink pops up so beautifully and makes this photo so interesting I thought.
