hot air balloon

Happy Weekend Everyone! Hope you all had an amazing week. Here are so of the things you may have missed:

I came back from Ohio and uploaded a few images from the weekend.
Ohio had some beautiful sunsets, but the real reason why I was there was for the MidUSA Ohio Hot Air Balloon Challenge. Heres a nice one with the balloons in the sky.

Here’s my behind the scenes look behind my images:

Now that I’m back home, the heat wave has been seriously affecting my images. It’s hard to get a nice sunset or sunrise. So I figured I could go to one of my favorite spots for pictures and shoot the water at Great Falls. While I was there I ran into this pretty butterfly that I just had to capture.

This past week was amazing for my work:
I was in FamousDC for my Capitol Sunrise

And in HDR Spotting 3 times!!


Hope you all have a great weekend! 🙂

So you may be wondering why I went to Ohio. Well it all started a few months ago when I was thinking about my photography. I thought about the kind of images I wanted and how I could achieve them. For some reason, one of the first things that popped into my head was a hot air balloon festival. As my dad would say, I asked Mr. Google and he told me about the Ohio Challenge.

Who knew hot air balloons were so temperamental. Out of the three times that I went to the festival, I only really got to see the balloons fly once. The air quality and wind depends so much on the flight, it got a bit frustrating, but I’m glad I came out with at least one image.
