Balloon spectacular

Another break in the holiday slide show for today's adventure on the water. What a great viewpoint for the balloon spectacular lift off, though it does mean getting out of bed very early and launching surf skis.

What a great capture and timing, beautiful with the sunflairs.

Is this part of the Canberra Balloon Spectacular? They showed some of it on TV - it looked amazing.
You're very brave using your camera on a surf ski - it would be the kiss of death for mine.... :)

[Wylie]

@robz yes it is. I used a gopro - same camera I used at 30m for the sharks!

[Valerie Chesney]

Wow! This capture is worth all you had to do ... Fav

[Kerry McCarthy]

Great perspective!

[Esther Rosenberg]

Beautiful day to see the balloon go up, Nice capture.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Spectacular placement of the balloon at the sunburst.

[Jacqueline]

Wow, it almost eclipsed the sun.

A lovely capture

@pusspup LOL - makes perfect sense. Water + sharks = Gopro! Our crazy daughter bought one to dive with the Great Whites - the video was horrifying. :)

Lovely shot and colours.

@robz that’s what we did. Yes it was. I extracted some stills from the Video I might share😊

[Islandgirl]

Lovely balloon capture!

[Kathy]

I like to see the balloons floating.

Great capture

[Rob Z]

Please do share - they aren't the sort of images that you see too often. P.S. Sorry about the "crazy" word. 😊

[Ann H. LeFevre]

That was definitely worth getting up early for!

[Shutterbug]

I agree with others, the image was definitely worth getting up for.

[Rick]

Awesome capture. Well worth the effort to get up early.

[eDorre]

Very cool! Love all the story too!

[Wylie]

@robz will do, but will have to be in chronological order :)
