Hot air balloons are an annual event at the old Clark Air Base in Pampanga. It's my first to shoot balloons up-close so we found our way there at the crack of dawn... It was a nice cold morning with a clear star-filled sky, but unfortunately the wind was just too strong, so the dawn launches were called-off. Sigh. I know I know. You do what you gotta do, specially when surrounded by the sweet light at dawn! Can't say I'll be back, but I never say never. Enjoy. PIHABF Website.
