Windfest 2011 - Toronto
If you remember from my last post - the Toronto Kite festival was relaunched as Windfest last year - Dave has taken the huge task of organizing a kite festival for the Toronto folks.
Yesterday wrapped up the 2nd annual Windfest out at the Toronto beaches. It was a perfect day - nice winds coming off the lake, full sun, blue skies with some clouds for some great photos. I flew my kite as part of the TKF group but there were kite flyers from clubs all over Ontario as well as the Windjammers from the USA.
Running of the Bols
Always a fav with the kids - the Teddy bear drop - although there were some technical difficulties.
The Candy drop became a Candy throw due to issues with the lifter, but the kids still loved it.
The Windjammers put on a great show for the crowds all day long.
Photos were taken with the Olympus E-P3 and the 9-18mm F4-5.6 lens.
