Why is this photo suddenly getting so many views?? April 23 / 24 and I'm suddenly getting so many views like someone reposted this on their blog. But WHERE? HELLO? Please let me know.
Under pressure? Well bear up! You can bear it!
The San Diego / Del Mar balloon flight corridor seems to be bearing up well under the pressure of development and less-than-friendly landowners / authorities as evidenced by some new balloons making a home in the area.
This Panda Bear balloon is owned and operated by Tim C. a long time balloonist in the area. For years he had worked on getting a special shape balloon, now it's done. Certainly this cute 'teddy bear' should soften even the meanest landowner that gripes about his dirt and weeds that we land on.
In the background, Black Mountain and Mount Woodson can be seen in sharp detail.

There's so much to say about this image!
It's just very beautiful ... composition, the balloon, tones, the mountains, the light ... to much to mention.
I will mention the tittle ... a very good one! (it had me laughing after opening the image :) )
Thought the description to be very interesting and in lighting too. Sorry to hear about the unfriendliness!
