it's all about hot air

Well, this is what makes it fly - hot air. This balloon could carry 5000 kilos. Impressing, isn’t it? See more balloons?

With this post we conclude our fantastic hot air balloon series. With a little luck maybe we can persuade Peter Häggström to come back another time.

This is a great catch, Peter! An excellent photo for the colours and the angle from which you took it. Well done!!

Ooh, cool! I've never seen a hot-air balloon from this angle. Thanks!

Thanks, when I took this photo I had to lean out a bit to get an angle free from the protection shield. The result - a burst of hot air into my face - for the rest of the trip I stayed under the protection shield and focused on other objects.
