Balloons lift off from an open parking lot here, their colorful envelopes rising above the rows of parked cars while spectators watch from below. Mass ascensions like this one were a staple of American balloon festivals in the late twentieth century, when crews used sprawling paved lots as launch fields because they offered flat, open ground near event grounds. Hot air balloons were revived as a sport after the 1960s, and events that gathered many of them at once drew large crowds eager to see the fabric swell and lift in unison. The scene captures the mix of spectacle and everyday setting that made such festivals memorable.
