Quick post today!
Back in early March I attended the Preakness Balloon Festival on a chilly and crisp morning. This shot was taken during the festivities as the crowd began to swell. One of the things that stood out for me was the excitement on the faces of children in attendance. There is something about bright & wonderful colors that has an uplifting effect.

Great splash of color from the balloon itself and a sense of movement from the crowd below – like this one a lot.

Great shot Jimi. You really brought out the color in the balloon. I have always like hot balloons. I think its the colors and designs that makes fun for the those watching it cross the sky.
