We went to Coney Island last night to see the Balloon Glow in honor of the 4th of July. It is so much fun to see all of these hot air balloons almost on top of each other. When the guys operating the "fire" see a real camera they go right into show off mode. This guy made sure I had a shot of the fire going up into the balloon to keep it inflated.

So jealous! Did you go up?

[Cathy Donohoue]

@elkereturns they are tethered. They call it a balloon glow. I love them and would love to go up but it is really expensive.

Wow! How nice of him to perform for you so you could get this spectacular image! I seem to remember some other hot air balloon photos you have taken in the past that were equally good

[bkb in the city]

Great shot

[Shepherdman's Wife]

I don't think I would dare go up in one. They're great to photograph though

[Cindy McFarland]

Beautiful colors and great capture of the fire.
