IT'S A BIRD, IT'S A PLANE, IT'S A .....Big blue bear ?????

I moved around and positioned myself to get some clouds in the frame, then took a couple of shots of this bear, which were kinda ho-hum, just a big bear floating in the sky. I decided to wait a little longer and left the camera trained on him. A gust of wind caught it and just twisted it nicely, so that it now appears to be looking at me with curiosity, it's head on one side.

As always, I appreciate all comments and feedback on my work. Thanks.

Your timing was just right Graham. Looks like he's saying hello to the curious one-eyed thing on the ground :>)

Clearly the waiting was the trick. I really like the colors and clarity of the shot and the twist in the ballon really increases the interest.

From people jousting to balloons in the air. What a range of subjects you have. This is a fun catch.
