Such a simple image but for me it really brought back thoughts of childhood as soon as I saw the thumbnail. I can still smell the rubber as I type this. Great feelings. |

I saw this photo and thought it was in the "Balloon" challenge and titled "Childhood Without Children." It made me think of the belly of a pregnant woman... tied shut. It made me think of a woman who is not pregnant looking at a balloon and seeing the baby she never had.
See how much a title can do? :) |

This is an excellent photograph! I love the strong color and the knot on the balloon makes a good focal point. I'd love to know how you lit and processed this. Excellent work and one of the best this week! |

the colours are awesome, 9. For a 10 score, I would liked to have seen the edges sharper. |

Great composition with that wonderful curve interrupted by the knot. Slightly too strong on colour saturation for me, and seems very grainy at right hand side. 8, Kavey |

This is simple, yet effective. Rule of thirds is well used, and the contrast is great. The only thing I feel is missing here is possibly context. 7 - Manic - |

I really like this image. One little thing though - this particular image, although great, doesn't really portray that childhood impression - well, that's not the way I remember balloons as a child - just my opinion. Anyway, I still love this image-good lighting and composition - 9 Ruthann |

It's strange that the thumbnail of this photo looked really aweful and the large version looks great. My photos are always the oposite. lol. Beautiful colors. I like the angle and placement of the balloon. The lighting gives it this nice gradiation from yellow to orange. Very nice job. Good luck in the challenge. |

It's well done and very nicely bold and graphic, but it doesn't convey any emotion connected with childhood to me, personally. |

Invokes enjoyable times letting balloons fly free. My kids call it "liberating Balloons." |

nice framing. cool shot. something about the red orange on the edge of the ballon bothers me. must be from the way you lit it. good job. 7 |

This shot is very sharp. I wonder if you tried holding a flashlight up to the opposite side if that would have given a better lighting. I'll have to try it sometime. |

It's a nice closeup of the balloon, but it doesn't evoke the feelings of childhood in my opinion. It seems more artistic than something that brings about an emotion from childhood. It *is* a nicely composed, well done shot, though. |

Wow, great, simple idea. The colors are interesting, nice framing, but after a short viewing, it's appeal disappears quickly. Still, let's go 9 for this one. Swash |
