Original, surprising. Probably wants a little something more to make it great, but it's over the half-way mark :)

I like your picture very much. a successful b/w conversion. The picture lives nicely through the contrast of the big black silhouette of the ballon against the cloud hidden sun. You did a great job keeping the shades and structure of the clouds intact. 10 + fav

An amazing back lit shot. The drama and dark shadows work well. The kiss of the sun and hot air ballon is what makes this special. Congrats on this fine capture.
