Hot Air Ballons.... #more photos added#As part of the 2007 Sydney Festival a fleet of hot air balloons took off from Parramatta Park this morning at 6am. They formed a Sky Orchestra and staged an aerial concert for tens of thousands of slumbering Sydney residents by playing music from speakers attached to their baskets

very nice, lets see more
what time did you wake up to shoot this? there was not much info on the press release it just said 'sunrise, paramatta park' regarding the project i think it was a fantastic idea
This must have been the second time up as they did the same thing yesterday - what a great alarm clock

-------------------------------- I started my life with nothing and I’ve still got most of it left
I got up at 5am and they were filling up when I got there about 5.30am and took off about 6am and I was home back in bed by 6.45
![]() according to the link I posted originally, they will be doing it again tomorrow (Monday) weather permitting So you can get up early, go and take a few photos then head off for breakfast at a nice cafe before work... I can't think of a better more relaxing way to start the working week.
You're a committed passionate man Keith. Nice shot. The only thing (completely unavoidable though) is the sponsorship on the balloons. Would love to see some more of this series from you though!.
