The Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta in New Mexico is an event that began in 1972 as a 50th birthday celebration for a local radio station. The event is now the largest ballon festival in the entire world and is held annually in early October.The event has seen as many as 1,000 balloons in a single year, but is now restricted to 600, under the quality over quantity mentality. This shot was taken during my first flight.

I think this would have to rank as the best balloon shot I have seen. Wonderful.

Outstanding work. This one has been on my bucket list for a long time. The closest that I have come is a rally in Walden, Colorado. Tons of fun, but not Albuquerque!

Great shot! It is a beautiful sight that we see here every year! I am so fortunate to live in an area that has not only man-made beauty, but a lot of nice natural beauty as well. Really nice shot!!
