Very nice dartompkins! I especially liked "Aloft in Evening Color" and the smooth texture of the balloon on "Kaleidoscope".

A very beautiful bunch of shots.
I went to the balloon festival at White Sands National Monument a few weeks back and got a few nice shots. When the sun is bright, the white sand makes for very interesting surroundings.

Of all the ones you've posted I feel this one is the best. I love the colours and the triangle formed by the balloons makes for an interesting composition.

| Very nice. I left you some comments. My favorite is the first one in the second row, the blue balloon on the beautiful blue sky! |

I am sure it is possible, but wouldn't it look a bit out of place if it were lighter? |

This one is the best! Off setting subjects against the background of one of the better sunsets that I've seen in a while works wonderfully!

Thanks TooCool and everyone commenting. Plano Shots are wonderful guys. I just love hot air balloons. I really enjoyed all the unusual angles. Some of those are great journalistic approach photos. I am curious if any of you sold to local papers etc.?
I would be having a pretty crumby photographic week considering my plummeting challenge scores without this balloon festival thread! Thanks to everyone participating. |

I really like the two sunset shots you've posted. The silhouette's work really well against the orange/ blue.
