What a cracking photo, very clear.  How do you manage to keep the kite still enough to get a shot like that?
I have climbed the lighthouse many times as a kid having spent my childhood in Kent.  It was a regular treat, a ride on the RH&DR, climb the lighthouse, back on the railway and a fish and chip supper, those were the days.

Hi Graham,
The Kite I use is a 7ft x 5ft Rokaku that I made,  it is very stable.
I was nearly arrested when armed Police turned up wanting to know if I was taking photos of the Nuclear Power Station,  They even checked my camera for photos of it.  All to do with possible Terrorist attacks.
