This is a fun catch. I like your timing with the balloon in the air and then seeing the logo on the truck. The only thing is that without the title, I would not have been able to make a connection to 6. Good luck!

Now that is just too funny! I think I would have cropped this vertically. There are too may distracting elements that do not need to be in this image and a vertical crop might have helped in removing much of that.

What a fun shot! I suggest you try a crop of the just to the right of the stop sign, giving the shot symmetry with the phone posts (rather than having the extra one fore left) and losing the stop sign. I think this would give more the idea of chasing down the road after the balloon, and get the balloon out of horizontal dead center as a bonus. Your clouds are great, and I love the late afternoon (I presume - could be early morning, but...) sun. Focus seems like it could be a bit sharper. Some will probably complain about shoehorning the shot in with the title...

WB looks a little on the cool side to me.

Could someone hand me that shoehorn?

For me, it's not a bad picture, it just doesn't hold my interest for long. I do hope they landed safely though. 5

Powerlines are dangerous with Hot-Air balloons and Photography. Careful.

The border enhances the old fashioned quality of this image.
