A few power kite flyers surfing off Barassie Beach. With the tide rushing in and an on-shore wind this was a really good day for kite surfing.

Power kite flyers surfing off Barassie Beach. From the number of kites in this photo (six plus a reflection) you can see that the beach at Barassie is a popular spot for this sport.

Irvine and the north Ayrshire hills are in the distance. Visible on the right horizon is Ben Lomond, forty-five miles or so away to the north.

A close view of a guy flying a Razor 10. We know it's a Razor 10 because it says so on the kite but other than that we're clueless.
