This is a panoramic view of the balloon field setting up for Friday night's Balloon Glow.


Dreamtime glowing in the twilight.


That's Matt in Third Priority on the left.


This is John Ninomaya, reading for liftoff in his cluster balloon on Saturday morning.


He also flies a conventional hot air balloon, but flying under a cluster of variously-sized
helium balloons is his special passion.


You can read more about John's cluster balloon adventures and the Iowa stop on his
"States of Enlightenment" tour at his website.
