Pictures in Wonderland: Balloons

I spent today with my son at The South Coast Plaza.  I had to get down on the floor to get this shot.  The great thing about taking pictures with a four-year-old is he gets right down on the floor with you--was happy to do it.

Today I'm listening to Crowded House "It's Only Natural."

It looks great although I don´t quite fully get it how the balls look like there is another layer.

Woodface has many excellent tunes but as an album it is a bit uneven.

I love the photo! You also gave me a flashback with crowded house! Wow, that was great!

[Suz]

That is one of the best photos I have ever seen.
When I was a kid, I always wanted ONE of those special balloons...do you think I got one? Ever?
No. But I was lucky to even get to disney world in the first place.
Take care,
Suz

[Mental P Mama]

The memories that those balloons bring!

I always wondered if that lady that sells the balloons took hold of all of them at the same time, would she fly away?????? Great picture!

[The Glamorous Life]

This is the BEST photo you have shown us. BEST. I would blow this up HUGE and frame it and look at it everyday just to smile. It is so wonderful. You should be very proud.

Worth laying on the ground for. FOR SURE

i always love the big balloon bunches. i try to get a good shot every time i go to dland. this one's cool but i'm wondering too about the mickey balloons at scp?

[Big Hair Envy]

You should really consider making that photo into a poster. I LOVE it!!! Although, I wouldn't have been excited about lying on the mall floor with you. Sorry.

[Susan M]

This is fantastic. Glad I'm not the only one getting on the ground for shots. :)

[Debs]

I thought I left a comment here...Anyways, this is good. I don't know why they have Mickey balloons at SCP--maybe the Disney shop has something to do with it.

awesome!!!!!

[Susan]

Beautiful! Love the angle.

My dad helped build parts of South Coast Plaza, years ago. (He was in construction, obviously.) I believe he built a great deal of Saks, if I remember correctly.

[Meg]

Yet another stunning photo. I'm tellin' ya, you could make money. Thank you for sharing these!

[Cara]

I love the perspective and the colors are so vivid. I would totally get on the floor, great shot!

[Catherine]

I love this picture very creative. You've been well-inspired to get down to the floor, great angle.

[LuckyMe]

Awesome, Suz. You are so dedicated to get on the floor. Thanks!
Those balloons bring back memories!

[Stacy]

what a wonderful shot! The kids don't think that anything we do is strange...so we need to think of them and not the strangers giving us those wierd looks, right?? :)

[PJ]

WOW! You do things in a big way out there in Wonderland.

Another desktop photo of my children goes by the wayside in favor of a Suz Broughton, *sigh*. Oh well, my children would have been totally embarrassed if their mother had gotten down on the floor in public, so the balloons can BUMP THEM. : )

Also? Someday I'll be saying "I used to steal Suz Broughton's photos for my desktop way back when she claimed she was not a photographer."
