Hot Air Balloon

Taken on a photo shoot at an early morning launching of a hot air balloon on Sunday. At this place, about 45 minutes' driving north of Johannesburg. The morning kicked off in the dark at about 05.45 and it took about 45 minutes for the balloon to fill and take off. Absolutely beautiful colors in the early morning light. And best viewed in LARGE.
