Daily Deviation

Given 2006-06-23

Freedom1 by ~skidu
You and I in a little toy shop
buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got
Set them free at the break of dawn
'Til one by one, they were gone
Back at base, bugs in the software
Flash the message, "Something's out there"
Floating in the summer sky
99 red balloons go by.

99 red balloons floating in the summer sky
Panic bells, it's red alert
There's something here from somewhere else
The war machine springs to life
Opens up one eager eye
Focusing it on the sky
Where 99 red balloons go by.
(Suggested by `gnato and Featured by `garrit)

Were you tied to some of those baloons, flying? :airborne:

Uhm, I'd have chosen a very thin pale blue contour and then a white frame.

Oh, I have 20 red&white baloons in my room, no kiddn' =)

I love this! This picture has such a fun atmosphere; the colors are great, and it feels like a celebration of freedom. I agree what someone else said about a white border, though. Still, this is great!

:iconskidu:
lol yea they're all real, was a pretty surreal scene
:iconatherness:
Oh, that's absolutely awesome!!
