Foxes, elephants, dogs and Yoda take to the skies – special shapes at the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta. Certainly, one of the highlights of this incredible gathering of hot air balloons is the special shapes. They take just about every form you can imagine and are a ton of fun to see fly and are sure to bring a smile to your face. This is just a sampling of some of the ones I photographed last week.
