Really cool to have captured a balloon in a cityscape. It would be nice to see more detail in the balloon, and no street light.

I love this photo. Some creative cropping and a bit more contrast would have made it great for me. 6

Strange feel to this pic. needs rotating slightly - I'm sure that a different viewpoint would have been advantageous. I would like to see the bottom of the balloon. The lamp post and tall building do nothing for the pic except distract - sorry

A few steps to the right, or getting closer to the ground, would of possably solved the problem of the street light intersecting with the baloon. Also, cropping the distracting element off the left side would of helped as well.

The street lamp really hurts the picture, especially since it reaches all the way to the main subject. I would have looked for a better angle.
