This is the second photo taken by my wife, Dora, at a hot air balloon festival in Lake George, NY, about a year ago. Once again, I was very impressed with the results. You can see the first shot in the folder "Dora's Photos." Thanks for looking.

Great Photo...it would've been better,if You were up there...We'd like to see how You handle Heights ;)Keep after it,Dora...You got a Great Photo!

Artist Reply: Dora says thanks very much Tim. But you will never find her in a hot air balloon, or the Statue of Liberty, or the Empire State Building, or anything above the third or fourth floor. She likes to keep her feet on the ground. Thanks very much for your comment and encouragement.

lovely shot of these,I see them all the time here and they have a balloon fair in Hillsboro,N.H. here to go up in them,used to be about $250. a ride not sure how much now.

Artist Reply: Thank you very much, Ruth. I think they're up to $350 for rides now. Dora would never go up; I'm afraid I wouldn't pay that much, but I would sure like to go up with my camera. Oh well. We appreciate your comment.
