Spectacular ! What happens with the ballon, does it just land anywhere?
Hi Christiane, thanks for viewing. Yes the balloon goes anywhere. One crashed into the amusement park, the pirate ship, one into the crowd (see Blog) and one into the power lines. I tell the Burmese they are crazy. And they just laugh!
Striking images Chris. Particularly the second pic from the POV of firing up the balloon – magic and dynamic. Good to see you uploading images again.
Thanks Jon, I do like to get up close and personal…..
great colours and dramatic images Chris I think you got away with out having permanent damage done to yourself and these guys are realy playing with fire hope they prayers come true.
Thanks Brent it didn’t feel dangerous at the time. A bit like attending a bomb fire. But if an accident did occur and the fireworks exploded in front of me it would be a bit like being on White Island.
