Palm Trees and Farm Fields
Uploaded: August 03, 2009
Because of weather conditions, the hot air balloons at the 2nd annual Citrus Classic Balloon Festival in Santa Paula, California, could not take flight. But tethered "rides" were given, and I was able to go up in one. Here's part of my glorious view.

Thanks very much, Jeff, Dominick, Tarun and Stephen. It was certainly a first for me, getting inside the basket of one of the balloons. I would not have done so, however, if it wasn't tethered. :-) #7813138Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
