169 kite photos and a nifty bit of shareware I've finally got around to publishing the full album of photos from the 2006 Nelson Summertime Kite Festival on  the Nelson Kite Club website. All 169 of them. I'm also trying out a new photo album system. Although I love the Web Album Generator I've been using for years, SimpleViewer is a nifty alternative. This is the first time I have used it so would be interested to hear any comments on usability. Does it work for you? I tried Picasa2 for the first time for this album too. Google does it again. This is a classy bit of software. I've used Irfanview (in conjunction with Photoshop)for years, but it just can't compete with this. I'll still use Photoshop for the heavy stuff but Picasa is great at organising my image files. Give it a go! 9:40:23 PM    Comment []

NKC Westport Safari Wow. Where did that week go. I've had the flu for a few days, some out-of-town visitors, and a couple of awesome days kite bugging with the Nelson Kite Club on the windswept beaches of Westport, and suddenly it's next week. Every year, towards the end of the season, the NKC car pool down to Westport for a get together. Westport has several greats beaches for kite flying. This year 9-mile beach provided the best conditions for the strong SW winds we had on both Satuday and Sunday. Today I feel like a baked potato (I look a bit like one too) from way to much sun (and too much fun). Of course I divided my time between kite bugging and photography. Here are a few of the hundreds of pictures I bought back. Look out for a gallery on the NKC site sometime soon. (click for 1024x768 desktop wallpaper) 8:14:13 PM    Comment []
