Thanks, Doug & Tom. @ Tom, actually, this is an ark. There are plenty of smiles and arcs in the ark, and even in the balloon on the left (not smiles tho), but unless you asked someone to look for arcs, all they'd see is a very colorful ark. Why would anyone be looking for an arc, anyway? All kidding aside, thanks for the comment, Tom. ";^D Cheers, -mikey

I prefer this as a "smile" than as an "arc". But best as a color study - well done balance of warm oranges and blue bg. -tv

Good one Mikey. I agree that the forground balloon adds to the festive nature of this picture. Nice catch of the flame too. -COAmature

I always enjoy the hot air balloons - nice ones of the smiles in the ark.

Nice one Mikey. The colorful balloon on the left/foreground balances this out nicely. Wonderful colors. Looks like a fun event.
