Beautiful POV and colour Patricia! #10415136Patricia A. Casey November 12, 2012
Thank you so much Tammy, Terry, Neal & Nadia....it was so amazing that the pilots of the balloons allowed everyone to meander around while they were inflating and launching....they are a very congenial bunch of people who love their "aircraft" and flight! #10415581Thomas E. Hinds November 16, 2012
This is just fantastic, Patricia! #10421809Patricia A. Casey November 18, 2012
Thank you Thomas! #10423883Dee Langevin November 19, 2012
Wow! This is fabulous Patricia! Love the bold color and great lines. I'm amazed that you were able to get such terrific access. I once attended a balloon festival in NJ (no where near as big as Albuquerque) and the balloons were fenced off from the spectators. #10425266Patricia A. Casey November 19, 2012
That's the amazing thing about Albuquerque.....everyone is walking everywhere....The pilots & crews are wonderful and many times people on the field get to go on a "free" balloon ride if they help out with the lines & gondola during set up...depends on the size of the gondola.... #10425285Stephen Zacker November 22, 2012
Cool, like those eyes #10429177Michelle Alton December 22, 2012
Just found this when I did a search on myself! It's a beautiful, emerald gem! I sure didn't see it from THIS perspective! #10474747Patricia A. Casey December 22, 2012
I thought your was pretty funny! When I saw this fellow on his side had to get a shot....the pilots are all so gracious allowing you to walk about while inflating the balloons... #10474841Robert R. Goodman December 25, 2012
