For this week’s Friday travel photo, I thought I would share a shot from a very recent hot air balloon ride.

There were two other balloons up in the air with us and I was able to capture this beautiful scene while looking down on one of the others.  The scene in the background is a massive reservoir (Lake Pleasant) that feeds water down into the Valley of the Sun via a concrete canal system.

We shot both still photos and video from this trip, and will be sharing them in a future post.  Stay tuned!

Disclosure:  our hot air balloon experience was provided by the kind folks at Hot Air Expeditions.
