We got a tether from my friend's place over Thanksgiving. The girls have gone to town on it. Thanx, Reb!
Took some shots of this boat last time. It's a bit of a shed, but makes for a more interesting photo than the beautifully painted, well maintained ones.

Kelly took this picture of our DOTA kites in the air. We were purposefully flyinging a tight formation that looks nice and produces great pictures. The kite that Terry and I made is the white Delta on the bottom left, Terry modeled it after Tims Morpho, which is high in the sky, upper left.
It uses real time, physical world, data (in this case light in the form of x-rays impinging on a satellite in geostationary orbit), to modify the characteristics of the piece.
