tethered
image notes: this shot came out incredibly clear, but I ran it through an app to give it a Brownie camera look
Our temperature rose to 82 degrees fahrenheit, (27.77777777777778 celsius – I used an online converter:-), but didn’t go higher because it was tethered.
That statement reminds me of a conversation Pooh had with Rabbit.
“I don’t see much sense in that,” said Rabbit. “No,” said Pooh humbly, “there isn’t. But there was going to be when I began it. It’s just that something happened to it along the way.”

March 18, 2011You can’t make me more happy than with a Pooh quote, Sherri. And here’s one that also goes with your image:
“Nobody can be uncheered with a balloon.” (Winnie the Pooh) :)

March 18, 2011Memories of ‘The Red Balloon’ from some distant youth – and I love Pooh. The ‘Brownie’ treatment seems perfect – all things considered.

March 21, 2011I would have preferred it to be super sharp, but I think that is a guy thing for the most part. Cool image anyway!
Rob
March 21, 2011I like this simple and stately image. We need to be tethered to the earth to keep us from following the example of Icarus.
Zing

March 25, 2011Lovely.
My photographic eye, though, wants to put the balloon tail at a perfect diagonal in the corner. :)
