Well a busy day Very Happy
Just had a hot balloon land in our neighbors yard and sort of collapsed into ours.
Naturally had the Helios 44-2 on for first shot. Then decision- Zenitar or Peling Very Happy Went with the peling.

Do air ballons happen to land on your gardenside regularly? Shocked Shocked Shocked

By the way I like the idea of using a fish one on these shots. It sort of metaphorically evokes the roundness of the balloon!

Orio,
There are no power lines in our subdivision, and lots of open space. About 10 years age there were only about seven houses here and it was almost a balloon port Laughing This was the first landing we have had in several years. Air was very calm.
Later in the summer, near here, they have a balloon glow in the evening where they inflate the balloons at night. Very pretty colors. I'm going to try and take a shot from the basket up into the balloon with the burner on. That should be interesting Shocked

This is great for photography (and for balloons, Laughing )
Here it's many years that they say "we will replace the air wires with subterranean ones", but they speak, speak, and they never do.
