| Photographer's Description |
|
Taken at the Prosser Balloon Fair, they light up the balloons at night to dazzle the crowds with the flames and brilliant colors. I was lucky enough to get this from the infield! Evidently, there is quite an art to getting these inflated. First they fill them full of cool air with big fans and then careful hit the burners to inflate them further with hot air. They carefully angle the flames so as not to burn the silk!

"Lucky enough" Eh? Seems like the harder you work, the luckier you get. Brilliant photo. The other balloons in the background are the perfect framing for central one. If this doesn't sell it means tha no one is looking.

Creative perspective on this beautiful craft. The fire is well located at the bottom center of the photo.

the visual line of this shot beautiful match its physics; as the eye is drawn upward by the escalation of color, so travels the heat; appropriate dark background; excellent composition and detail, Mike

Nicely exposed, as it's just perfect. I like the pattern deflated ballons in the background make too.

This is a nice one, I like the close crop with the light of the burner illuminating the balloon from the inside.
