We had the local balloon glow here this past weekend and I managed to get this shot of my son and his friend hanging out under the fire of the balloon. I know it's blurry but I liked the feel of it. Thoughts?

Was this, by any chance, in Georgia? At Calloway Gardens? I know they just had a balloon festival and glow over Labor Day weekend.

This was in Colorado Springs, CO. We have a balloon event every year. This year my daughters dance team was selling balloons at the event so we were there helping. The kids love it and it's a great photo opportunity.

That's for sure. We've gone to the one down here for the last couple years, and the balloons are just beautiful.

Great shot, but probably would work better in color, I agree.

Mad, love your Angel avatar.
