Balloon race....A view of the competition...please critique for

improvements...

I like it! The way you "layered" the balloons here - partial baloon in foreground right, then complete baloon at middle distance, finally lots of "little" balloons strung out flowing bottom-right-to-upper left - it works very well for me. Also, very good colors in the balloons and very nice deep blue sky.

thanks for commenting, Stephen. I really appreciate your input!

Really great colors! Nice perspective as well...

Great color and nice capture!

Beautiful picture. Very good perespective, colors and details (i guess the speed was not less than 1/50).

Thanks all for looking and commenting.

 

VLAD: I checked my records...speed was 1/250secs...shutter priority...speed was set for my 200mm lens...was changing lenses back and forth during the event, so kept the shutter at 1/250secs...no time to change settings as everything was moving and compositions were changing rapidly..Thanks again everyone.

Great depth and colour.

 

the ballon in the foreground renders size and the ones in the middle and the background flight!

 

Well done, great comosition.

Great picture. I like the composition and color richness. Only one weakness that I see here is the effect of polarizer made the blueness of the sky uneven. You may want to touch up a little bit in Photoshop to recover the original blue sky - specially on the top left corner. Otherwise, a great shot!

Excellent colors and "Near-Far". Great job!

Very nice but I think the closest baloon is a little too dominant. Best wishes.

Nice colour well done

Splendida...meravigliosa!!!

Really nice - I like the "swagger" in the balloons - on the day I took my balloon photos, all of them were dead perpendicular to the ground - I think the bouncing around adds interest. Thanks for your comment on my shot!

Exsellent photo!!!

Awsome!
