Weekly Photo Challenge: Escape

This photo shows the start of a balloon race, just after they escaped from the hands of the local school children. The colours are representative of the house colours, yellow being the house of my daughter.

Weekly Photo Challenge: From Above

This weeks photo challenge is From AboveChange your perspective on something. Share a photo of a subject which you shot from directly above.

Being ‘new’ to WordPress, I’ve been taking a look around, and discovered The Daily Post and subsequently this challenge. It reminded me of these photos, which were taken in 2011. We were fortunate to be able to go over to Canada and stay with a family, whose son we had hosted during his soccer team’s tour to England earlier the same year. The previous summer, my son had spent time with this team when his school sports tour went to the Toronto area.
