I love these balloon shots of yours, they are so crisp I feel like I could reach out and touch the water. Absolutely gorgeous work!

Hi friends! I have some projects I need to get done, so I won't be able to visit Caedes as often as I would like. Appreciate you all very much, and will try to comment as much as possible. !

Now there's a winner...taken right above a lake that is just ready to grab reflections. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! This is a keeper. Ok, that's two. Got some more?

I used to live near Temecula (Rancho Bernardo) and it's difficult to get a shot this clear - no haze or brown smog rolling in. Beautiful composition, color, clarity...Excellent all around! Well done!!! anne :-)

Cool! That must have been an amazing evening, ahh.. I wish I could one time see something like that, propably the festival is just as nice, good wines, fun people and what a great weather! Our starting summer is still trying to ignite. Just cloudy and mostly gray, even feels cold at times.
Great composition and color harmony!

Well done!! I love the reflections and the clarity on the main balloon. It looks like a very clear day, as you can see for miles. Even the mountains right at the back and the one balloon way high up. Perfect color balance as well!! I really like it!!

I keep coming back to this photo, it is such an amazing shot.
You know,where I live I am in a direct route of balloons. They virtually pass over my head quite often but I don't even go to the trouble of making a picture, because the light conditions are often very poor.
And then I see this....amazing! And it LIFTS my spirits, cheers me UP!
Thanks for this gift from the sky.

This is the best photograph I've seen in a long time. It has perfect focus on both close-up objects and ones further back - and the quality is outstanding! I'd love to have been there, and a tip for next time - take one from inside a hot air balloon!!

Oh sure it's a beautiful capture, but it makes me WAAAAY too envious that I didn't get to experience such an idyllic setting in person!!! Couldn't you photoshop in a storm cloud or something? But seriously, great shot, so much depth and such an inviting composition.

I seem to be discovering your work now.. again, superb capture and composition, details, colors, etc. We had gone in a balloon ride in Cappadocia Turkey, but it was cloudy. Wonderful sensation. You are gifted in photography, BRAVO!
