Skywatch Zoom

 

 Always on the look for skywatch photos I spotted some hot air balloons floating in the distance so I thought lest try out my 400 mm zoom and see what they turn out like. 

I took the photos using a Tamron 100-400 mm zoom, not my first choice but affordable when I bought it a few years ago, it used on my Canon R6. What I only just noticed is that there is a para-glider under the balloon on the right, I did not notice it when I spotted the balloons

The balloons were too far away to get a good clear view of them


I thought the clouds look like they could be worth photographing, did not see the pidgin till I downloaded the pictures.


Fluffy ones


Moody ones


Threatening ones 


Ones with Red Kites flying past

Living where we do you can guarantee seeing these flying overhead everyday

Happy Skywatch

Love seeing the beautiful skies there. It's been foggy here for days, so it's wonderful to see your skies.

Very pretty shots. I've taken photos and only noticed something later while viewing on a computer screen many times. Always a fun surprise!

Beautiful photos. I love getting my pics up on my laptop and being surprised to find other things in my photos that I didn't notice when I took them. It's like opening a gift!

I think people who do that are brave, I'm terrified of heights.

oh, yes, I wouldn't have spotted para-glider, had you not mentioned it. those skies wouldn't inspire me to fly balloon or para-glider.
