After 3 years of gazing at the balloons silently drifting over Brisbane in the early mornings, I finally got to have a go! What a birthday present.Can you see the Story Bridge?
And these buildings?
How about the Tallest Tree?
More balloon pics over the next couple of days...
Enjoy your Friday wherever you may be and for a glimpse at other skies around the world, fly over to Skywatch Friday.

How lucky for you to get a balloon ride and on such a beautiful day too. Thanks for sharing with everyone in Sky Watch Friday.
Fantastic photo! It´s your birthday?? Happy Birthday to you!
Happy SWF!
I hope everything is okay with you and your family because I saw at T.V. the terrible pics of the fires!
My thoughts are with you!
Very nice shot and so cool present. Happy birthday! And SFW!
Wow - how exciting! What a beautiful photo of the city!
We did that a few years ago, but it was a much different view - we were floating over the Arizona desert.
Beautiful shot of Brisbane. Our thoughts and prayers are with all Australians during your terrible fires. Hope you and yours are safe.
Have a great weekend!

How cool! And what a great view of Brisbane!
fantastic. when enlarge you see all the details and nuances, super shot.
I'll leave you to your balloon ride; heights bother me...even when I'm on firm footing...
But the photo is excellent...the colors and the light are striking!

Beautiful shot of Brisbane especially in that early morning colour. You must have enjoyed that Balloon ride. Have a great weekend.
Excuse my ignorance, but when it comes to big cities in Australia, I've only seen photos of Sydney and its opera house, I have never seen Brisbane. Thanks for sharing your birthday present with the rest of us.
Lucky you, I did a balloon flight years ago and it was one of the most beautiful things I've ever done. Wonderful light here.
Happy Birthday for last week (?) cara!
That photo will be one that you keep forever I expect, it's a beauty!

Happy Birthday
Hi and thanks to all for all the great comments it really was an amazing experience. And cheers for the birthday wishes - It may be 2 weeks ago now but I am still milking it. Note to self: must log out to avoid members of family commenting in my name. Hope you enjoy the next couple of balloon shots too!
That is a magnificent view! I'm not sure I have enough guts to go up there in a balloon. Congrats.
Great photo...but I am like the last commenter..prefer to get the scenery another way!
