There’s a fire in my Saturday Sky

By ScoutJ | Posted in Saturday Sky |

This morning I went with our good friends to be the photographer for their family as they went up in a balloon to spread their father’s ashes. Some of you may remember the funeral we went to this summer, as this is the same friend. It was a beautiful morning and I got some really great shots for them. I was honored they wanted me to come and do this. I also went up in a balloon for the first time. This is one of my favorites from the morning.

    What a great photo. The top of the flame almost looks like
    crumpled up paper to me.

    What a wondeful shot. So deep and symbolic.

    Okay, so I looked at that photo and said to Anthony that I want your camera - that shot is amazing. He looked at it and agreed that it was a great shot. then he added said it’s not the camera but the photographer (I knew that) then he said “She probably read the manual”. Unlike me apparently.

    This is off-topic from this particular post, but I love your Twist colorways! There is just something about them that really intrigues me. How do you dye them? What is the base yarn like? They rock!

    What an awesome image… I feel like you really could turn this into something else, though I can’t think what yet.

    It looks like images arising from the flames in that picture. It also looks intimidating. How wonderful that your friends wanted you with them during this special time.
