I'm sure it's just me but these balloons present somewhat of an 'unusual' profile. I think if I were designing these I might have given them some additional thought. :rolleyes:

Fantastic shots, folks!

Did you find out why he needed to do that?

No.....never did.

He came up over the trees on the back of our property, just barely clearing them. Then across a pond at which point he yelled down asking to land.

It sounds like permission or not, he may not have had a choice but to land on their property.

Apparently he was in trouble and HAD to land somewhere soon!

I had been thinking about shooting a local balloon festival with only my 85mm lens. Really try to focus on color and composition rather than merely documentation with a wide angle lens like most photographers do. Here's some of my results, it was a really interesting shooting challenge
