It
was snowing balloons at Batu
Caves. Thousands of helium
balloons were released as part of the
ceremony to unveil a giant statue of
a Hindu deity.
Story: One
thousand balloons, one click
With the wind changing direction
unpredictably, there was only one brief
moment for a decent shot. I framed it
against this interesting foreground
to show depth. The highly directional
late afternoon sun restricted my angle
considerably (left). On the other hand,
its brightness allowed the use of an
aperture with fair depth of field and
a fast enough shutter to freeze the
balloons high up in the sky.
