Hi all. Two of my many passions are photography and balloon art! Combine the two? You get photos of balloons. Here is the first post of hopefully many to come.

I shot these with my 1D Mark II and 50mm 1.4. The lighting was weird because it was a cloudy day, inside, but it still felt light a strong white light coming in. I didn't know what to set the WB to so it might be a little inconsistent.

The pictures are boring, but just wanted to let everyone see what I can do.

Here's my blog page with a short introduction of how it was made out of scrap balloons: http://myballooncreations.blogspot.com/

All very nice but is this really performing arts?

I guess it's more Still Life (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=31), unless the balloons were moving around on their own. Were they? ;)

Thanks for the views. Yeah, I"ll put the next ones into stilllife. Better yet, I'll try to get one of someone (or me) making them for performance arts, or someone holding them for people.
