Nice shot. Those steerable chutes are something else.

That's a cool photo!
Life has three aspects: Paradox, Humor, and Change.

Paradox: Life is a mystery; don't waste time figuring it out.
Humor: Keep a sense of humor, especially about yourself. It is a strength beyond all measure
Change: Know that nothing stays the same.

They really are something else...I got to try one before I get old. Excellent photo, J_B.

Well a couple of weeks ago I was contacted by my buddy who flies the powered paraglider, that the local newspaper wanted to do a story on him flying.  So because of the weather, they would need my photos that I had previously shot of Dennis flying, and the reporter promised to give me the photographer full credit.

Well as you can see in this story link, he did not.  Man enjoys high-flying freedom with powered paraglider
