It's over :(

Another "Eyes To the Skies" festival has come to a close. While shooting conditions weren't ideal for the first two days, Sunday did provide a great day to finally get some shots of the balloons!

I was disappointed that the festival committee erected a six foot high chain link fence along the hill at the east side of the launch field, which made shooting from that position impossible. That area, on the hill, has long been a favorite place to shoot from for many photographers, myself included.

Now that the festival has come and gone, like the Cubs faithful refrain; "just wait 'till next year!"
