Description

This paraglider was hovering overhead yesterday afternoon, as I was walking up the path that led to the 'Schauinsland', the highest summit of the Black Forest in Germany, overlooking the city of Freiburg-im-Breisgau. A minimalist photo to express fun and freedom...

Minimaliste peut-être mais elle exprime terriblement bien l'idée de liberté que doivent avoir les adeptes de parapente et de parachutisme ! Très belle capture Jean-Luc et j'espère que tu t'es bien amusé en Baden Wurtenberg hier... A la vue de cette photo, je pense que oui :-) Bises Virginie

I think it is a wonderful capture and your title is perfect as this is like the ultimate expression of freedom for the person doing it. By the way Jean-Luc thank you for letting us know where you were when this was taken as it adds to it for me
