I live just over the border in Allen. If the wind is right the balloons fly right over my backyard. 2 years ago a balloon was so close he could have landed in my back yard.

Where is the best place to park and to take photographs? I know for close ups you need to be around the balloons. This will be my first time but have seen some great photographs taken last year.

I plan on going Saturday afternoon.

Thanks,
Bob
