Description
FULL VIEW FOR DETAILI have been pondering as to whether or not to post this on DA - it was such hard work and effort by so many people that I think it just being given a cursory glance and consigned to the 'another andrewf picture' bin, is not something I wanted - for all the others involved as much as myself.
It is all in camera and required all the cherry pickers to be moved individually into position and took a long time to get this right - along with the 10 metre 'Rapunzel' hair-piece taking hours to attach.
I wanted to do something that people wouldn't just be able to go and 'do' - something that rose above the usual AND though EmmaS is wearing Elizabeth Emanuel, they can't be seen....but the inspiration of them is undoubtedly here.

zOMG, a shooter who does not get scared by the logistics involved in a big image - this is indeed epic, and I salute you 
I too suffer from epicideaitis, with the only cure being cash and time - and I seem to have none of both!!
Keep up the great work, definite

Wow, I've really been out for a while. I'm not sure if it matters, but I apolgize for being inattentive.
Congratulations on the Daily Deviation, it's wonderful that you got recognized for such an amazing peice of work that was obviously important, and quite a setup it so seems. ^^
I love how even though the model is the center focus, she isn't focused on the viewer, or on the land below, but on the baloon and the distance 'above' her.
have a nice day!

I think your right, this must've required so much hard work, that it's above DA. But still I'm happy you posted such an unimaginable, epic, and beautiful photo. This is the kind of piece you keep through the ages. Cheers on an amazing piece of photography.

great example of teamwork. Love the background. To me the cherry pickers remind me of dinosaurs lifting their necks into the sky. Awesome.
I also noticed you got yourself a DD out of this. Congrats. It well deserves it!

Marvelous! Congrats on the DD, because you truly deserve it with all the hard work that not only you put into it but the crew you worked with.

The time and effort really shows in the image. It's appropriately lit and toned and the composition is unusual and engrossing... like brontosaurs.
