Taking Off

This photo of Hot Air Balloons taking off was shot in Hampi, you can see the ruins of Hampi in the background. I've added texture to the image.

  2. I do love balloons and enjoyed a wonderful flight in one with my daughter several years ago! Wonderful to be able to look the eagle in the eye! Superb capture, Sam, as always! Enjoy your weekend!

    A little birdie told me,
    Although I don’t know why,
    That if I were to look up,
    Way up into the sky,
    I’d see some wondrous planets,
    The moon and sun and stars –
    There before my very eyes
    Blazed Jupiter and Mars!
