If you look at these as well as yesterday's shots, you'll notice a few key themes:
Shape - I tried not to take pictures of anything that was straight on, if that makes sense.
Framing - I made sure to use the space wisely. A small kite with a long tail can still take up a lot of space. That was my goal.
Clarity - My telephoto lens rocked the house! I held very still, and was amazed at how good these shots were.
Color - Given that it was a sad and cloudy day, I really relied on the vibrancy of the colors of the kites.
What would I do differently next time? Try to use the surroundings to create drama. As an example, a blue sky with clouds would have been more interesting. Perhaps I would take more pictures of the people and the festivities - at a distance so I don't have to worry about model releases.
Tomorrow - some inspiration from Popular Photography.
