A camera's delight is right. This is a fantastic shot. I especially like the reflections. It's not often that you can get reflections at night.

Thanks to all who comment on pictures in my gallery. Please accept my apologies if I am unable to thank you each time, and please don't feel obligated to thank me for my comments.
pretty. funny. Question: how do they make them balloons light up? Projectors? 'cuz it seems that a lot of energy goes into making the balloons so light. nice image.

What a delightful and vibrant sight this is. The clarity, especially taken at night, is amazing and the colors are beautiful. I like the reflections in the water in the foreground. Excellent job you've done.

Can't always give individual thanks but I am so appreciative of everyone's comments and input. I truly enjoy seeing all of your posts and am always happy to see you at My Gallery. Thanks, Anita
Love the looks of hot air balloons! We have several races here every year.. if & when the weather cooperates which isnt often. The local club usually holds a glow around Xmas every year too. Excellent capture, as was said clarity is top notch, & your angle just right to catch reflections & ballons both!

Amazing capture. We have a balloon glow here during the Cherry Blossom Festival but the setting doesn't compare to this. Very very good image.

Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual.

Art is the perception of the creator. Meaning is the perception of the viewer. acceptance is the perception of society.

Wow Jojo..wish I could have been there. I was at a family reunion :(....the Energizer Bunny looks...well, energized! I see that Macy's put in their balloon this year and of course, KMOV came right to the front. As others have stated, this is a fantastic capture of a night event. The colors are sharp, the quality is excellent, the composition is spot on and the clarity is outstanding. The reflections are a plus in this capture. Very well done amigo. Miss you as well :~)

Jojo, that's a really hard shot to pull off, and you did a great job. Was it a "hound and hare" balloon race?

a slightly grainy image ... no biggie ... noise ninja or neatimage would fix that in a trice
its a fun, colourful, dynamic image with super use of reflection and lighting
but you know what the best part is?
the seriously human personal touch with that lady in the specs in the bottom right corner looking directly at the cam in a bemused manner
HEY LADY the action is over there !
/me points to the big rabbit
ROFLMAO!

Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-improving path. You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb. - Churchill
i actually had to say wow out loud to this one absolutley stunning Jojo what a fantastic sight!
