Sepia Saturday 305 : 14 November 2015


The balloon has gone up. Sepia Saturday 305 is here. The balloon in question is one called "Le Neptune" and the photograph is taken from the Flickr collection of the Bibliotheque de Toulouse. You can decide to go in whichever direction you like with this prompt - as long as it is up, up and away. There are grand balloons, children's balloons, barrage balloons, weather balloons and all other kinds of curiosities and diverse objects (which you will see is the name of the Flickr album from which it is taken). Whatever you decide to do, simply do it on or around Saturday 14th November and add a link to the list below.

But before you have ascended so far you can no longer see what is happening back here on earth, take a look at the theme image for next week.


And if you want even more you can always find a full list of all of themes for the rest of the year HERE.

Such things are for the future, for the moment simply step on board the giant Sepia Balloon. Please make sure you have no sharp comments with you - we don't want the balloon bursting.

Top of the list this week, before we fly away, by plane not balloon, for our son Kim's wedding in the Hunter valley NSW. Another location where balloon flights are popular, but they won't be included in our itinerary.

Neptunium = balloons, planets, and Gods.

I have an old studio portrait in a hot air balloon prop.

I love balloons but I've got nothing that fits except a French connection. Should be entertaining nonetheless.

The blob. The balloon. The shape leads to a building.

I make my apologies, my post is really last week's prompt that I have only successfully been able to post tonight after several tries. Next week, I should be right on. Have a great weekend everyone!!

How the events of the real world made a Sepia Saturday search meaningless.

It took me until Sunday morning to finally remember a photo with a little hot air.
