Excellent photos mate! It's amazing how the balloons fly so easily and can take off anywhere and land almost anywhere :)

As part of the pro football hall of fame inudction ceremony and the week building up to it last weekend our resident school kent state stark campus hosted a large balloon event with over 77 balloons participating in competitions, mass launches etc.

Nice ones Waspiflab, those are the ballons me and my friend didn't capture as they didn't lift on the Saturday night(traffic chaos night ;) ) I'll get round to uploading some of the night glow, mass launch and firework display at some point!

On a side point - some said they can land anywhere - http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/bristol/8192177.stm - i guess thats why we didn't see them back at the night glow later on!
