Balloon Festival - Pagosa Springs

Offline
#1 sclark
This was a fun little project, shot with both a DSLR for time-lapse and a small HD video camera, both running at the same time. The video camera footage has been sped up to go better with the time-lapse footage and the music. This balloon festival is held at Pagosa Springs, Colorado, at an altitude of over 8,000 feet, weather permitting. The weather almost didn't permit the festival this year, (was shot in 2012). It was a bit windy and it rained off and on throughout the event. I did not have an assistant so it was fun trying to keep both cameras dry and continue shooting. I was shooting from a ridge about a 1/4 mile away. You can see many photographers on the ground running around with their tripods in the background.
