Gliding along and enjoying the view below. When making arrangements for a balloon ride, they have to have the total weight of you, and whoever is going up with you. They have to take weather in consideration, and even though they give you a date, and time, that is up for change. Last year when I went up the third time was a charm, and this year we went up after two tries. The desired wind speed is 6-7 mph and anything above 10 is questionable, not exceed 12 mph according to google.

I appreciate your comments, thanks.

The light and shadows are outstanding Tigz.
The marsh below looks great from your eye in the sky.
Another wonderful photo.

That seems to be a thrilling experience, Sandi. Gives you a whole new perspective on the world as you drift along.

Sandi, think I see you in the shadow of the balloon: the left person in the basket while capturing this splendid bird's eye view, 😜 .
Just kidding of course. Fact however is that you've provided us with another fine and amazing one of this series.

Really like the light in this one and how you captured the shadow of the balloon itself...must be a super experience.

You know, I first saw this as only a title in my Friends list, and my first thought was "Now how did Sandi manage to get a photo of me?" =0)

Normally I find the photographer's shadow in a photo as either an indicator of someone who doesn't know what they're doing or it's an old Brownie shot my mom took... but in this particular case it adds character, source, and whimsey to the scene. Neato!
