Greater Lansing Balloon Festival

/

A friend invited us to the Greater Lansing Balloon Festival last night, which was fun. Naturally, I spent most of my time running around taking pictures.

The sky was washed out in a lot of these shots, so I played around with sky overlays in Photoshop.

I’ve got an album up on Flickr. Here are a few of my favorites.

For that third picture, the balloonists for “The Flash” saw me with my camera and waved me in for some close-up shots, which was a lot of fun.

I think I need to start taking some sky photos of my own, so I’ll have my own library of overlays to use in the future…
