This is another picture from my early start at the balloon
fiesta yesterday morning. I feel I should explain the title as well as my
picture on this occasion. Anyone who knows me personally will also know that
early mornings are not my forte! With this fact in mind, this is the first
sunrise that I have seen, and I definitely started on a high!
This was the first balloon to have taken off, just a few
minutes after 6am, when the sun was just beginning to rise. I’m not entirely
sure why, but when I took this picture the basket looked like a silhouette
while the rest of the shot was in colour. I like it; it makes it seem more
anonymous- like they represent actions instead of people.
I had to use an incredibly high ISO (1000) as it was still
quite dark, so I couldn’t pick up any details. However, it introduced a lot of
noise to the picture. Despite all the noise in my photo, I absolutely love it!
I’m impressed at how I managed to catch the flame. The colours of the sunrise
have been picked up brilliantly, and it’s amazing how you can see the bottom of
the balloon being lit up. I can’t wait till next year’s event!
