Williamsburg Photo Du Jour: Millenium Falcon

When this young lady arrived with her family at the Gibson after the Kite Fest, well, I simply had to get a shot of her kite. She told me she made it herself and (I quote) “it didn’t fly very well”. Given there was little wind (at least when I arrived, anyway) I assured her it was due to no fault of her own— and that her creation was quite nifty. Besides, if I remember correctly the original had such problems. This, in my (admittedly dorky) opinion only lends to its authenticity.

If you want reliability you go with an X-Wing… or Tie Fighter.
