Nice colours, but if you don't mind constructive criticism I would suggest with a subject such as this, to fill the frame with the baloons and leave out the people. You could crop your shots to make the same effect. I think you will find they will have more punch.

I agree with Peter, nice shots, but too many people / other things.
Just scrolling down, I cut out the people on the last pic, I think that, along with cloning the flag out makes a much stronger image. Undecided about cloning the tree out, but I think I would.
Looking at number one again. It's a shame you could't get the baby in shot but with no other people. The scale between the child and balloon would make a great shot (IMHO )

Thanks Peter. I was taking pictures with the crowd in to give a sense of scale but I think you are right, it looks a lot more dramatic without!
Cheers,
Richard.
