Taken at the Great Forest Park Balloon Race in Forest Park. I just missed the two ballons bouncing off on another. Taken with my 2x telephoto add-on lense and the camera exposure set at +1. Cropped, auto levels and contrast. I know it's a stretch for this concept, but I haven't submitted in a while so I figured why not.

Crop is a bit too tight as I think it would have been a bit better had the wonderbread baloon also been in frame.

Well, not a bad idea for a shot for this challenge but it´s framed a little bit too tight for my taste, you cut off the "basket" of the blimp on the left and that really hurts the image IMHO. Also, there seems to be a very wierd blur on the left side of the photo, was it something you did in PP or is your lens just this soft on the left side? 5 from me as I like the idea but not terribly fond of the outcome.

I think this might be a little bit of a stretch to meet the challenge, it also might work better if there wasn't all the advertising involved.

I am not sure if anyone has mentioned it but the first HERE should be spelled "hear".

Brilliant colour and definitely a good place to discuss a conspiracy.
