This balloon flew over our house

This is a yesterday shot.

A hot air balloon came floating over our house.

I got my longest zoom and pointed skywards.

The sky was fairly bland but I needed to do a +1EV to get some detail in the balloon colours

Tweaked in GIMP and boosted the saturation, maybe I should have shot in RAW !! @happypat
Ha Phil I have no idea LOL !! I wouldn't think you could improve on this ..it's fantastic & spot on with your burst of flame. Pity we can't hear the whoosh!!

@happypat thanks Pat...lol...the flame is a bit 'burnt out' (LOL) ....should be more orange / yellow than white !...but it was relatively high in the sky

Glad @happypat pointed out the flame. That really makes a great capture even better! Well done!

At first I thought we were looking down a blue beaker! Then it came right. What a great POV to be able to use!
