Parasailing
Posted by Stunner (Kingston, Jamaica) on 1 November 2007 in Sport & Recreation.
This is something I think I would give a try, even though I would be so nervous up there in the sky over the sea. I did a little cropping on this shot.
Thanks for all your comments and I'm so sorry I haven't been visiting your blogs as much, but i have been so busy!

A really nice one, the person looks so tiny suspended from the para-sail.
P.S.: I'll be away till Nov.18 with no internet access, so I won't be able to visit your blog, but of course the granby.aminus3 blog will be running normally, also my friends from our blog will try to take over some of the communications.

Nice - the sailer really stands out in all the blue. I think I would try this one too as well!

That massive sky is fantastic, but the colourful para-flyer is so clear here, nice shot.

I actually went parasailing this past summer during a trip to Florida. It was quite an experience. I hate heights, and didn't think I'd actually do it. But, wow, when going up it's quite the thrilling experience. I would encourage you to do it one day. It's a lot of fun.

Sometimes you should do things that scares you.
In a controlled environment, of course.
No use being stupid.
