It is a fascinating event to be at the site in the dark of night - before dawn when they are first starting to fill these colorful subjects. Many years ago I had that opportunity.

Hi MJL :-)Every year we have a large Balloon Festival in Northampton (UK) The night before the morning of lift off they have the "GLOW" this is where all the pilots have their burners on very low, creating an ethereal effect this leads up to a Rock Festival and finally a firework display.
The event offers photo opportunities of all kinds. Nice set :-)
