Early in the morning and I went for a walk to catch the autumn colours. As a nice surprise, I also caught this balloon being blown up and ready for the off....
The person was holding the tether as the balloon was being filled with hot air from the propane blower.

I was struck by the lovely colours of the rainbow of this very colourful balloon. The balloon designers are no shrinking violets. They are not afraid to use bold colour and lots of it!!
At the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta i watched a program where it was explained how the patterns and colours are decided. Very interesting, for sure.
It is a treat to live in New Mexico and be able to watch them in the sky on a regular basis.
On TE, I upload a slightly different view of this balloon... more blown up.

This could be the cover for a children's book!
The colours are incredibly vibrant and the textural details, superb!
I absolutely agree with your positioning of the ballon in the frame! Well done!
