Celina hot air balloon festival (continued)

In addition to my HDR attempts, I managed to get a few images of flight crews and festival attendees.  Attendance was sparse…probably due to the first chill in the air for this fall season. 

This young man was having a great time and was dressed for the chill.  

This ground crew member was a study in efficiency.  He didn’t waste one motion in laying out the balloon and controlling the cold air fill prior to the burner start.

Elena did such a fabulous job of creating balloon images but I did manage to be in the right spot at the right time to catch this one as it passed over my head with the burner full on.
