It always a good time. The sights, sounds, even the smells from dawn patrol to the main launch is something that can never be adequately described.

Beautiful shot! I love the balloon fiesta C: I only ever got to go once (I lived in NM for two years), but it was one of the coolest experiences of my life.

I totally agree with the DD suggester here. They appear so small. The colors seem a little too bright though, making it feel a bit surreal.

Albuquerque, I suppose? I was supposed to be there right now, but there was a scheduling conflict.
The mass ascension really is one of the most beautiful things in the world. What really amazes me is the silence as they fly.
