Plano Balloon Festival 2017

by Michael B. Nguyen

#PlanoBalloon 2017 is a wrap! I had an amazing experience serving as an official photographer for the 38th annual Plano Balloon Festival.

This is just a small sample of the work that I put in over the weekend. I actually took HUNDREDS of photos and they’re all posted all over social media.

Be sure to follow @planoballoon for updates on next year’s event:

And one last thing. Hot air balloons only fly right after sunrise and just before sunset. They can’t fly at night because of FAA regulations and they can’t fly in the middle of the day because it’s too hot. If you’ve never been to a hot air balloon festival, I highly recommend seeing the morning launch before dawn or the balloon glow after sundown.
