Wow, so many balloons at the same time and frame!
Nice capture Matthew, love to see more pictures of that event.

I think a zoomed version of this image can have more effect.

I thought it was a cartoon! I feel light as the air, all of a sudden. This shot is really coming out of the ordinary, as it looks.

Je suis impressionné par le nombre. La photo est très claire et permet de distinguer pas mal de ces magnifiques engins.
Dommage qu'elle soit si petite.
