Very simple but very effective.

Not sure if you wanted the string so hard to see or not but I think I would like it more if you could see it better. Maybe also bring the colors out a bit more. Good idea though.

Hah, I love this idea! The tilt on the balloon gives it a 'flying away' feeling

This could benefit if the colors were more vivid. Maybe you could do it with a Hue/Sat and brightness/contrast change in PS, if you have it

I like the faint line from the string. Maybe it is just my monitor, but the colors look flat. 5

I like this a lot. I would think that if you played with the blue to make it brighter by saturating it a bit that it would set off the balloon nicely.

Good idea. the string is a little distracting.

I like the "....almost" part, it made me look for the string. Good thinking. I think the shot would benefit from more sky. -7

Excellent, the only let down as you already know is the string showing, well done

I think just a little boost in saturation would make the colors pop out more. Seems a little bland.

i like this shot, but it looks a little gray to me

Some will say the colors need to be brighter, Ah... that would mean moving the sun... or using a flash or strobe to put some light on the balloon. Good idea, very traditional

cute

Meets the challenge. Artistic quality is ok, nothing special. I would have liked removing the string if possible prior to taking the photo.
