Wow, great action shot! I'm thinking about the pp, which is rather strong but I would probably do the same. I think it emphasizes action, strain and danger. Great work.

Looks more than a little dangerous! Much more interesting than a merely pretty floating balloon shot.

We have a BallonFest here every year, and we are bombarded with photos from the event. zi must say though, this is one of the best I have seen. Great shot. Great action!

Wow - action, color, fire, what more can one want in a picture.

It's all here. Find a contest and stick this one in.
As a matter of fact, remove it from this side challenge and stick it in Free Study!

Yes.

We went to a balloon festival in July great place for photography. I didn't know what I was doing back then so most of my photo's only turned out so so. Can't wait to go next year, hopefully will know what I am doing by then to get some great shots like this.
