Thanks I was using very high ISO so a little noisy but focus was achieved. Started shooting at around 4:30AM, I was back at hotel room by 9AM.

Very nice series. I also like the first one the best. Isn't it amazing to see all of the balloons take flight? I've seen it once in my lifetime, many, many years ago. Some place I have the photos I took - film camera then. Wish I knew where they were in storage. At least I hope they're in storage and that I find them one of these days.

Thanks for the comments, there is something about fire images that are so primal when you can get them, I used a posterizing filter in PS to achieve a little more grit to some of these shots.
