Attending the Chesapeake Balloon Festival this weekend. This shot was from yesterday.
So after scoping out the festival grounds I returned to my car for chair, blanket and tripod. Set up right by the rope barrier. Happily snapping away and finally I sit down for a minute when the pilot from one of the balloons (his card is in my car) comes to me and says grab your camera ...LOL I must have looked official with my tripod, cameras and fishing jacket (aka photo vest) . Here is the shot I was able to capture of his balloon.... It was my lucky day 🥰... Got to try and get some sleep before I head back out for the early morning 6:30 ascension ....crossing my fingers that it's a go ...... Sadly too much wind this morning so no ascension happened. Hoping for better luck this afternoon.
Amazing photo! So much for being in the right place at the right time! There’s no way he could have mistaken you for a photographer because you are one!
I have two. They have so many pockets and mostly with zippers. You can stash batteries, cables, remotes, phone, cash, keys and so much more that at times you wouldn't need your camera bag. Of course you do need to try and put each item in the same pocket each time you use the vest so it doesn't take forever the find which one holds what.
