Balloons by taffy

Balloons

From yesterday's graduation where we celebrated my stepson's major career shift from cabinet-maker to teacher. I'm proud that he's committing to teaching despite the current environment / attitude toward teachers. Now to find a job!
Thought it fit the weekly theme of looking up -- we could see the balloons wrapped in the ceiling and looked forward to their release. I had my camera ready.
Congrats to him and a great shot

Its not easy, I've found getting faces clear in such a big audience so good to focus on the balloons! Blue and gold are our province's rugby colours!

wow, what great focus, congrats to the new teacher!!!!!!!!!!!!! All I can say is hope he doesn't mind all the crappy paperwork, and stays in long enough to have a GREAT retirement package like my husband and I have after 34 years. "Stay focused on the kids." : )

It's always good to have another teacher among us. I'll certainly hold positive thoughts he finds something quickly. I'm sure CPS is hiring! ;) Kidding...really...just kidding!

Congratulations to your stepson! Good luck on finding a job. It seems like many end up moving to the southern states to find teaching jobs. I am amazed at the quality of this image. The balloons seem to stand out from the background and the pop of the blue ones is incredible! Fav!

The vibe and tension in this are great - the whole auditorium is going to burst into cheering and applause any minute, I can sense it.
I like the depth created by the further group of balloons and the colours are fab. Fav.
