I like the last one (in this thread), of the dude firing the, er, flamey thing.
I went to the balloon show in Burnley a few weeks ago, and also took lots and lots. Unfortunately, most of mine didn't make the cut either. Very hard to get aesthetically pleasing shots from there. The whole thing looks nice to the naked eye, but very hard to capture that on camera.
Too many bloody people in the way for a start...lol
Nice work!
