Flying kites through a solar eclipse - even if just a partial one - is a unique experience. The uncanny, strange light makes everything really special ... and unforgettable.

Iška Moor - Iški morost - is a strict nature reserve in the middle of the Ljubljana Marshes landscape park, a home for many rare and endangered birds, butterflies, dragonflies, and plants.

Iška Moor is an amazing place, well worth a visit - but only a kite can see it in all its glory ... ;-)

Thursday's long read: how we tried to colonize Ljubljana Marshes, why we kinda failed, and how we are now protecting this strange, wounded, beautiful ecosystem.

March is here, spring is coming, the kite season is about to start: - and we just had our first relaxed kite flying session of the year! :-)

Come for kite aerial photos and a new word - stay for aerial (as in 'full of air') philosophy and a kite-flying Wittgenstein!

A kite with a camera caught a rainbow above Ljubljana Marshes, but got almost caught by a storm: how we reeled in 300 meters of line in a world record's time :-)

A ... *dynamic* ... kite flying session - and a melancholic kite aerial photography session - above the Ljubljana Marshes landscape park, Slovenia.

It was a hard and nervy kite aerial photography session - but we got one of the most fascinating lakes in Slovenia: the nearly circular Podpeč lake, a true Eye of the Marshes.

'Shroom, anyone?

Dr.agon kites had some extra fabric, so a cute little mushroom was born. The test revealed a couple of teething problems, but it was a success - the Mushroom flies! :-)

Night kite flying is ... quite an experience. Especially when you do it for the first time 🙂

Finally! We had our first relaxing kite session of the Spring!

Warm, sunny, and windy weather at our regular kite flying spot, two new kites in the air - and people attracted to flying monsters like bees to flowers.

Sometimes a kite aerial photo seems dull ... Wrong camera settings? Lack of post-processing skills? Is it the old adage - dull weather, dull photos?

Perhaps.

But, at least to us, the real question is - is there really such a thing as a "dull" kite aerial photo? 😉

We were kinda exhausted from all the kite flying and kite festivals, so the doctor prescribed - more kite flying 🙂

While some of our members are having fun at the Tunisia kite festival, others celebrate a new addition to our kite fleet - and revisit an old debate about making and buying kites ...

We have a new kite for kite aerial photography - The New Blue Rokkaku :-)

Made by master Janez Vizjak of Dr.Agon Kites; 200 by 160 cm. Passed its first test with flying colours!

Our first KAP kite, the 6 years old Venerable Blue Rokkaku, was restored to flight status - and had performed its first KAP session after two years of rest. It was perfect! 🙂
