One More From Utah

I had been holding onto this picture from Park City, UT because I had entered it into a contest, but now that I know I didn’t win, I can share it with you.

Every now and then, fate blesses us with one of those rare moments when the world presents to you a bit of magic and makes you feel like you are a special audience of one. I had one of those moments during my time in Utah, when it seemed I was being shown something unique and beautiful, a scene just for me.

After having breakfast one morning, I was walking back to my hotel when I looked and saw something rising out of the ground up into the sky, slowly floating up. It looked tiny at first, but as it made it’s way up into the heavens, I realized what it was: a hot-air balloon. Before long, another and then another appeared, all gracefully climbing up into the ethos.

And so I did the only thing I could after watching in awe for a moment: I grabbed my camera and took a few shots. Luckily for me, they were able to capture some of the magic I experienced in Utah.
