What a Load of Hot Air
When we were in the North Island of NZ last, we took a Balloon Flight up from Hastings.
I took this image from inside the Balloon, as it was filling up with air.

Great shot Larry – these hot air balloons always fascinate me but scare me to death!
Larry Davis replied
It’s sooo quiet when you are up, you don’t even notice.
Anyway, I was to busy snapping…..
Hans Kawitzki
Great shot from the inside
Larry Davis replied
You have to be helping to get her up, to be able to shoot something like this…..

Wendy Slee
this is always an amazing sight…....they are so vast inside, aren’t they!!!
did you get right in or shoot through the flames ? Hope you had a great flight!!!!
Next trip to WA, maybe we should go HAB in the Avon valley!
Larry Davis replied
Hello Sunshine.
God it good to hear from you.
Dawn & I were wondering about you.
Hoping you are OK.
We are off the airways for the next couple of weeks….
Off to the Philippines.
But yes… If we can get back to WA, HAB would be a bonus.
Wendy Slee
Hey…have a wonderful time and get some great shots! I am somewhat out of commission these days, not been well, but “this too shall pass”......
I will have to save pennies for the HAB….but the heart is willing even if the wallet is weak LOL

Macedon is quite pretty, and very photographic.
