Balloon Fest

About a month ago we had the opportunity to travel to Vernal Utah for Dinah SOAR Hot Air Balloon Festival. This was the first time for this event. They were unable to launch as the wind was 21 mph the whole 2 days we stayed. They had to keep the balloons tethered.
I have included a few shots of the night glow that did not happen, they just candled. Basically just running the burners. It was pitch black so the images are a little grungy.
Our daughter and grand daughter are on one of the balloon crews, we were invited to an expanse paid weekend. I also used the opportunity to use the new Luminar 2018.
Cheers Ron.
