I have been here before and I wanted to leave a comment, but unfortunately I could not comment as it was stated that the forums are closed. So now I finally have a chance to comment. Your albums have paused my mind to wonder and stand rapt in awe of your talent. Thank you for sharing and inspiring. Thank you - Anup

Hi Candy, I thoroughly enjoyed refreshing my memory of our trip to this even in 2000. Sadly, the ceiling was too low the day we had tickets and no balloons were allowed to take off. We were camped on the property and in spite of a cloudy period it was a gorgeous sight. Thanks for sharing your beautiful photos! Judy aka L@dybug

Beautiful job Candy. The balloons all look so great against the sky. You did a masterful job of keeping both the bright sky and the balloons in the picture without overexposing or underexposing either one. Mike

Well, well!Ain't I baffled?! This album is one year old and I did not look at it until now! A great collection of beautiful shots! I really like it!!! There are some shots taken with great artistry! Not to say anything about people's imagination when it comes to shapes!!!! But I still prefer the traditional shapes with striking colourful stripes!A warm hug to you, my dear Friend! Gabriela

What an interesting study - Lordy, these are colorful images! I was once on a chase crew for a balloon rally, and that was quite an experience in the hills of East Tennessee. These are majestic crafts, and you have more than done them justice. Thanks for sharing this with us. Fred in East Tennessee USA

Superb pictures Candy, superb pictures Larry. That must have been a great day out, talk about all the colours of the rainbow! What a brilliant subject to photograph, it's unbelievable that there were so many balloons in one place. Thanks for your lovely messages, kindest regards, Andy.

Hi Candy and Larry, what a nice album you have put together here. It's a beauty to view by slideshow, very nice. You sure have alot of shapes and colours of balloons in here. There is not any balloon shows in Shetland, as it's too windy most of the time. All the best, George

Hi Candy! All the beautiful balloons, all the colorful balloons, all the lovely balloons, all the unimaginable balloons, all the overcrowded balloons ... in such an unforgetable festival ... MY DREAM! If I can fly in one of these balloons, or simply if I can walk around the fields with numerous balloons up in the sky above me, and enjoy exactly what you have enjoyed ... too many dreams! Congratulations to you for such an enjoyment! Dear Friend! Oh! Has Teddy had such an enjoyment too, or perhaps is he frightened? HeeHeeHee! Big Smile and Big Love and Big Hugs!

Hi Candy, this is a wonderful album! Those balloons are really beautiful. Thanks for visiting my Snail's Blog album and for the kind words in the guest book. Let's all hope that this funny album is all that will be left from the problems with this site... As for being featured, my only concern is that they will not censor this album. I personally prefer if they pick better albums to be featured... You're invited to take a look at some of my other album. I hope you'll like them as well. Wishing you a wonderful weekend, Yair.

Hi Candy, such a great album with all the colorful balloons. This reminds me of a great present I got about four years ago from my son and his wife, a ride in one of those ballons. What an experience for me, especially since we almost had a meeting with a fence post. (didn't know the lady was a beginner in piloting the craft). But still a wonderful present. You and Larry have a true gift for photography, thanks for the tour... Trudy

Hi Candy, Remember me???????? I'm so happy to see that you put up your photos of the Balloon Fest. Larry got a great shot of me, in #78. Clarence bought that broom for me a couple weeks ago. The balloons are all so pretty. Well worth getting up in the wee hours of the morning, isn't it? I surely wish I could have been there. We'll be in Arizona from Feb 17 through the 23. Hope we can meet up there. Much love and hugs, my dear friend. Sharon

People have great imaginations don't thay? Anyway.... this sure is one fun album. Hugs Dear Friend: Kathryn

Hi Candy. Isn't this just the best lot of colors you could get in one place. The baloons are incredible my friend. I love them all but my favorites are the irregular shaped ones, like the cow and the witch (spelling????)on her broom. It must be just fascinating to see them all in the sky at the same time. You posted about 100 photos. How many did you not use? LOL. Catch you later my friend. Hugs mate. Al...

I have put my message in three times, but webshots is not working well, so if you get it many times that is why...Hi Candy..I think you just put up this album. I love seeing all the balloons and I am sure it was really sensational in person. There are so many types and colours, they all look great. I like the witch and tree stump from the really unusual ones. I like seeing them all and the skies must have looked beautiful that day filled with colour and cute animals in the forms of balloons. hugs and love, Barbara
