Getting Then Under Control

Hey I got a chance to take a candid shot while I was at Disneyland of this young man wrestling to keep his balloons a float.

They were very colourful, and floated with such grace that I couldn't help but watch him for some time as he struggled in the breeze to keep them under control.

Enjoy.......... Skippy (Australia)

    He was really struggling with the balloons at one stage, the wind picked up slightly and he tried to move around a corner with less breeze to shorten the length of the strings in his hands........he finally got it under control and moved back out into the Main street.

    Disneyland is a Trop Fest of beautiful colours .....thanks for looking :D

I know you are my one and only Ozzier adviser but good heavens man that shot was from 8 weeks ago rolleyes1.gif Im gonna guess and say it was my 24mm..........I had only three lenses on me, the 24mm/50mm/100mm while I was inside the Disney Park.

    I used my 24mm so much during my trip, and at times even it was not wide enough for my needs...but I love that lens it performs beautifully, so lets pretend it was the 24mm shall we :D I won't tell anyone if you don't rolleyes1.gif
