Early Morning Ascent

A very early get up this morning to see the early morning ascent at the Bristol Balloon Fiesta. While due to launch at 06:00 there was a delay of about 45 minutes while last minute weather checks were concluded.

I didn't count but there must have been fifty-plus balloons and I captured lots of images, with a shortlist of 37 to chose a blip from(!). Despite some with the Clifton Suspension Bridge on full display, I like this shot with the rising sun lighting up the bridge tower and distant balloons.

I also posted a blip from Thursday evening's Night Glow.
