Hot Air Balloons

Brief

In this contest I am looking for your photos of one or more hot air balloons, whether you are embarking on a romantic balloon flight or you are at one of many balloon festivals around the world. They can be on the ground being prepared for flight or in the air. Please only enter photos that feature hot air balloons or part of them, not just images taken from a hot air balloon, the only exception being the shadow of a balloon on the ground. Colour or monochrome photos are both welcome. I look forward to seeing your creativity.
