Away We Go, a photo from Nevada, West

Photographer's Note

I took this one a few years back at the Reno balloon races. As this particular balloon took off, it flew directly overhead, providing me with this perspective.

Note: I reposted this image after cropping, sharpening, and adjusting the colors and saturation, as was suggested. I think it is quite an improvement over the original. Thanks for the help.

Hello Scott,
Nice POV under the giant balloon. The basket looks so tiny! I like the tight crop, it works well in this photo.

Hey Scott! Very nice repost! I think the cropping makes it a little more interesting too!

Regards,
Doug

The tighter crop definately looks much better. I like the geometric pattern formed by the pattern on the baloon and the straight-on view of the basket up into the top. The colors still seem a little gray, but probalby because of the lighting that day.
