I've taken pictures at balloon events, so I know what a great achievement this photo is. That balloon looks the size of a city.

I would love to see what this one looks like in color -- but the b&w does capture the drama.

Comment by PapaBob:
Interesting choice to use B&W for a balloon burn shot. I am used to seeing the glowing colors in these type shots but I find the B&W strangely compelling and interesting. I love how the B&W accentuates the texture of the balloon and how the light from the burner is lighting the crowd up. Well captured and framed, good luck in the challenge!
