Blue Monday, Mellow Yellow, Ruby Tuesday, My World Tuesday / Balloon Glow

 Clock on photos to enlarge!

It seems I can't resist a 'balloon glow' or every combination of color I can create!

 This is when the balloon was inflated and then the heat lifted it to an upright position...it's amazing to watch the process go from packed in the back of a van to ready for launch!

Although, these balloons were tethered to the ground for the night-time 'glow' event.

This is just a sample of the 'gazillion' photos I took this past Friday night, June 3, 2011.

My husband and I and our son went to the Temecula Valley Balloon and Wine Festival this weekend.

It started Friday night with a lot of music, food, wine and the best part of the evening...The Balloon Glow.

It was awesome!

There were so many balloons glowing all together and also one or a few at a time.

The light was constantly changing which made the photography a whole lot of fun.

I am posting a WHOLE LOT of photos...just because I can't stop!

 Ooh...the heat from the burners!

NO problem with mosquitos here!

One balloon was a little slow, but finally got up and GLOWING!

This show doesn't wait for slowpokes...

My friend's 3 year old little grandson  recognized the Target balloon in my photos on Facebook.

If you shop at Target, you might recognize their logo on the red balloon.

I loved this one!

Now...they are all up and ready for action.

 The light kept changing.

Seeing, hearing and feeling the heat from the burners was exciting!

This was Friday night...

The Mass Ascension took place at dawn on Saturday morning.

I am looking forward to posting those photos soon.
