I went on a daylily tour this morning very early. I heard a loud hissing sound and turned around. The balloon was right overhead and looked as though it would hit the house or trees. I started shooting as it lifted up and over safely.
We have lots of hot air balloonists around where I live. It is kind of funny how they just sneak up on you. We have a big hot air balloon festival coming up in later this month. i can't wait to shoot it.
