Greetings from the Critique Club.
First thoughts - this definitely met the challenge. Hot air balloons always make for a good subject imho, and nice work catching the flame. That flame definitely added a bit of something special. The colors seem realistic, and not overly saturated. Nothing wrong with the light, although nothing particularly special about it either. (Darn the morning not having been a nice pink sky morning huh?)
For me, I suspect I might have enjoyed the shot either with more of the scene or isolated in the sky. The bit of trees just did not add much to the overall feeling about the image. Had the green coordinated with a color in the balloon, I might have felt differently but as it stands the green of the trees just seemed to pull my attention away a bit from the balloon and cluttered up the scene a bit without giving me feeling for what the surrounding area was like.
All in all I feel like this was a solid entry for the challenge, just maybe not as compositionally as strong as some of the higher scoring images in the challenge.

| What's not to like about this image? Now if you had only been on board and started photographing the view from there. Still, good marks from me. |
