Unfortunately there were scraggly trees right below the basket. You both are right, the balloon needs a bit more room so I cloned out the trees as opposed to cropping them out. I've uploaded the new photograph. Looks better… Thanks Julian and Rich, Brian

I would have to agree with Julian otherwise spectacular. rich

This is a great shot Brian but you cropped it a bit too tight in my opinion. Why not give it a bit more blue sky left and right and also down?
