 Thanks for the votes & comments, I was bitterly disapointed with all the smoke that filled the area when I climbed here, but I was rather excited about climbing higher than a hot air balloon :)

Still it gives me a darn good reason to go back another time.

It is a great landscape and a good point of view, yes, it deserves another try without the smoke.

Glasshouse Mountains? I would have like to have seen a little more saturation in colours so that the balloon stands out more.

Hmmm...interesting scene, and it has definite possibilities, but something seems just a little "off". I'd just like to see it "pop" a bit more I think.

Looks a little over exposed and hazy. Spectacular view though!

Wow - very nice landscape. Good colors and composition. The balloon adds a sense of granduer for me.
