Another shot from the Colorado Balloon Classic down in Colorado Springs.  As they start getting their balloons ready, they have to fluff them up before they start pumping it full of hot air.  So they use fans to fill the balloon with air.  This combined with the early morning sun behind the balloon can make for a dramatic view.
