October is trending to be a busy photographic month for me, year after year. I get my balloon fiesta images partially edited and sorted, then I have to put them on hold for my portrait sessions while the beautiful fall colors are out in full force. Now, the portrait orders are off to the lab and I have some time to once again work on the fiesta photos. This grouping of images shows what goes on behind the scenes on the ground, as well as the up-close-and-personal rides some of these balloonists get with it. It's astounding how much work and how many hands are involved in making this activity possible. It's definitely a group effort and the lines are not drawn in the sand between the balloon crews. Literally, all hands on deck!

This is what I mean by up-close-and-personal.... see the road? See the balloon? Wow! |

A new meaning for 'taking a dip'. |

This is only a partial view of the camping available for the fiesta. All of those vehicles are motorhomes or trailers. This photo doesn't encompass the entire lot either. LOTS of campers. |
