LUXGSM

Here's another hot air balloon treat (and no I didn't shoot these stunning pix). According to photographer Pierre Cester,
"LUXGSM World Balloon Trophy is a competition that takes place over several days. The Saturday evening always ends with a big festival around the Lake of Echternach. The highlight of the evening is a great fireworks display over a selection of balloons participating in the competition." I think it's the color and composition that inspire me.
The event is held in Luxembourg. Seen here are the Schroeder Fire Balloons plus more pix by photographers Planecatcher and Ray Binder. Nicely done guys. (The original pictures may be found on airliners.net)
