Auto Pilot

This is another of my hot-air balloon series that I photographed as they passed over the countryside in southwest Iowa.I call this one Auto Pilot because I cannot see the good folks inside the balloon basket.

Fire Fly

After a week-long effort, I have finished working on my hot air balloon collection. The final count is 14. As always, this took much more time and energy than I imagined. But now, for the fun part. Here is the third image in my collection, one that I call Fire Fly. The name is a bit vague, until you see the burner glowing just above the pilot’s head. Here is my latest, with more to come soon.

Mellow Yellow

This is the second of several balloon images that I have been working on. I am posting this one because I really like the fact that if you look very closely, you can see the flame heating up the air inside the balloon. This image, for obvious reasons, is called “Mellow Yellow.”

Red Flyer

We went to a local hot air balloon festival this weekend. It was amazing. The balloons were fabulous, so very colorful and accessible. I came away with a lot of promising images. This one is the first of several that I will be posting in the next week. I hope you enjoy the show.
