The special shapes are a favorite part of every balloon festival.



The Darth Vader balloon was a big hit with the young people......

Especially since some of the crew members came in costume!


After a day of flying, the afterglow is always enjoyed. All balloons are tethered and their heaters are turned on to create a colorful glow.

The 2009 Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta was troubled with weather problems. I decided to share the 2007 pictures that my daughter took because they reflect just how beautiful the balloons can be in a good year.

I never knew they did that with the balloons after dark...how pretty they must look. I also never realized they had balloons in so many different shapes. Thanks for sharing this.
