OZKiteman, really like the angle of all your shot's BUT this Scorpion one does not look right, has this been photoshopped?

Hi Wombat, no Photoshop here!

This pic was taken during The Arts & Sculptures Festival on the Beach - on the Gold Coast - 2008. Real size, real people, real sand. The photo was only cropped for better framing.

Cheers.

Ps.: I've never had the opportunity to photograph a Wombat from a kite yet. Looking forward to it.

It looks like a sculpture wombat, a type of metal. Just like the big spider, the big ant etc. What haven't they made a big one of. There can't be much left.

Great photo by the way, very clever.
