And finally, the first grounded balloon for months! This yellow was not an easy capture - I spotted it rolling around in front of some garages and stooped to snap, but the waft of a passing car picked it up and tumbled it roadwards. I stalked after it but had lost it, and wandered around curious awhile, sure it hadn't been popped under tyre, when I saw it hiding highlighted by the headlights of a passing car. It was too dark for anything other than to wait for another to illuminate the elusive escape, but happily the road was busy and the subsequent shot straightforward.
