Take Off

‘Take Off’ - Tony Cotterill

There is a lot of Red Kite activity in my part of Henley and there is often one perched at the top of this tree. This image captured the Kite launching itself from its favourite perch and was taken on an August evening when the low sun illuminated this magnificent creature against a clear early evening sky.
