Balloonfest in Upstate NY

The Annual Coors Light Balloonfest was held last weekend at Jamesville Beach County Park and the weather couldn't have been more perfect Sunday for them to launch. I'll add more when I get the next batch uploaded. All taken with my trusty D70 and 18-200 VR lens. No post processing.

Thanks! I've had the sensor cleaned twice and that spot remains. Luckily, it's easily cropped out without much lose to the photos.

 

nice colors especially on #1.

 

Thanks, Howie. I must say, Mother Nature provided perfect lighting and the balloons added the magic of color and flight.
