wow what an amazing moring for photos!! shame the ballon is infront of the tree, but, im looking forward to seeing more as i see this says ballon fest 1!! the colour and mist make for a spectacular looking morning thats for sure!! nice shot!!
yes, wow. I disagree with JQ a little here, I think the tree/balloon combination makes something quite unique in this picture. Not that it needs it, the mist, the sun and hills make an excellent combination anyway. The middle valley especially is quite beautiful. Using the balloon to reduce the sun flare helps all these little pieces stand out so much more. Great picture. Faved.
A balloon! I got the image in the VB and just couln't figure out what strange silhouette this was... It certainly makes you look twice ;-) And a third time again, to look at the rest of it - the mist, the light, the hill, the whole gorgeous photo.
