Very nice and simple... I like it... I have a question... How did you do the squares over the ballon?

Hope that helps

Aaaaah... Pretty smart! I'm new at Illustrator and I was wondering if Illustrator has some kind of tool to achieve that process, like the bend tool or may be a combination between the grid tool and some morpher! Like the warp or something like that... A must try!

Thanks for replaying mate!

sometimes the best pictures are those that you forget about, and remember when you're bored.

I see hot air balloons rising over the valley every morning...it's a tranquil, contemplative scene that you have captured qute well. The perspective is great and the distance of the balloon from the ground is a nice touch. Wow, it's so familiar, even in digital form. Well done.

You sure proved simplicity is beauty.

This makes me feel strangely nostalgic. Those precious, quiet memories.

Probably in the park during dawn, watching other children fly balloons and kites with their families resting on the grounds just enjoying the view. The skies are clear with only a few wisps of clouds, I knew it was going to be another fine day. There are only nature's pleasant sounds and children's laughter. Stalls are opening and I'm urging my parents to buy me some cotton candy.

I'm holding a personal attachment to this picture.

shattered-reflection [2005-09-27 11:10:48 +0000 UTC]

I love the black line towards the top, it makes you feel as if their is a limit to how far the balloon can travel. That once it hits that bar it will bounce back and begin to sink back down to earth.

The amount of tone and shading in this made me mistake this for a photo at first. Amazing work!
