fun shot. I think oit would have been even stronger cropped in tighter eliminating the non balloon elements of the left of the fram and drawing more attention to the person pulling the center cord.

Neat shot, I would have liked to see a little more of the right side of the image though. Nice use of deep DOF, good job overall.

A lack of colour impact, for me - a white balance thing, perhaps? Fairly chaotic composition - the three overlapping figures add confusion, the cropping of the balloon ... if you'd got down at low level and shot to fame the person holding that rope entirely against the background of the balloon, for instance, you'd have a far stronger image. Including the background only on image left doesn't really seem to add anything to this, especially when cropping out the otop and left of the balloon. 5

It's a very colorful balloon - in a nice composition. I like the human figures providing scale. The white sky a bit detracting. To show a deep Dof, it would be better if something were closer to the lens.

Pretty cool. You should have tried to get a little closer to the woman hold the main line.

I like the contrast of the primary colors of the balloon against the green field.
