They are over here in Newcastle too, and I have been trying to take some good pics of them. The problem I have is that their kites look colourful and teh board rides can look spectacular, but it is nearly impossible to get both in the frame unless you shoot very wide angle/low zoom.

yes the kites these guys had were really bright green and red and I could not get both in and be close enough either

Great shots Julie! Its the middle of Summer here! woo hoo! How cold is it where you are? 0 degrees celcius/. that would be a warm winter day here! So just imagine, it could be worse!

well the average for a winter day here would be about 13 to 14 C but right now it's around 15 to 17C and has been for weeks. Nighttime we get down to around 3c in the coldest part of winter and some towns in from the coast get down to0 to 1C at night.
