 Another hot air balloon entry in a challenge this month...
very basic editing, a little curves and levels, USM, resize and USM. Unwisely entered, as it will only get about a 5.0 at most in this sort of challenge. And you can also see the Asimo balloon there.

This was at the "Balloon Illusion" event at the end of the World Hot Air Balloon Championships. There were fireworks as well.
