Scene: dozens of hot-air balloons in striped red, orange and teal rising over eroded rock valleys with fairy-chimney rock towers, one balloon close to camera, the rest scattered into the distance. Moment: the sun just clearing the horizon, burners glowing inside the nearest balloon, thin mist in the valleys. Light: soft golden sunrise backlight, pastel sky, long shadows across the terrain. Camera: 70mm lens from a rooftop terrace, layered depth from foreground balloon to far hills. Style: fine-art travel photograph, soft pastel palette, crisp detail. Format: horizontal 3:2 Avoid: distorted or melted balloon shapes, logos or text on balloons, duplicated identical balloons, oversaturated colours, watermarks.
