Ashdad's Fotothing

I got up at 4:15 yesterday morning to get to the Adirondack Balloon Festival; drove for an hour and twenty minutes to Queensbury where 90 balloons were supposed to go up at 6:30 AM; took another half hour in start and stop traffic to get to get the last mile into Bennett Air Field; and nary a balloon in sight. No launch, and the ballooninsts I spoke to seemed to think there would not be any more this weekend.

So what to do? I had a camera and I came to photograph brightly colored fabric floating across the sky. These are the best I could come up with. 1 of 7.
