I like the idea of the composition of the vases and the contrast in colors. And the sharpness of the front vase against the blur of the back vase is nice. Except however, the sharpness of focus works agains you in this case since it shows the residue of what apprears to be the outline a water drop that was not properly cleaned off. And that small detail detracts from the overall cleanliness fo the shot. Otherwise I like it.

Very beautiful colours, though it is a bit difficult to discern what we are looking at. Try avoiding shadows in these kind of shots. Jacko.

I like the unusual crop. I think it was a good move for the transportation theme as it helps enhancing the idea of movement. I might have left just a bit more space on the left though. I also think you did a good job on the exposure. To photograph things with the sky as a background is always difficult. You easily get either a washed out sky or an under exposed subject... Well done.
About the subject, I think it fits the theme pretty well. For me a hot air balloon definitely is associated with voyage and transportation. And as mentioned before your crop enhances the idea of movement.
There are two things I can think of to improve your pic. First, it is true that your image displays some unwanted noise. It doesn't fit the subject so you should get rid of it. Second, to have some landscape in the background would boost up this picture a lot. It would enhance a lot the idea of voyage. But I guess it was not easy...
Anyway, you did a good a job already.

I like the clarity of the image and the way the colors work well together. I think however that there needs to be something more in the image to attract the viewers eye.

Comment by thatguy:
there seems to be too much space in this image i may have tried to crop out most of the sky to create a better image 4
