Daniel McCooke, Red Balloon (MINIMALISM - Entries close 31 July 2026)

During an early morning walk with my camera through Melbourne a hot air balloon came in above the city. I noticed a motorbike parked on the side of the street. I used the revision mirror to frame the shot. It was shot with a Nikon Z5, paired with a 28-75mm f/2.8 lens. I used a focal length of 75mm, shutter speed of 1/160, aperture of f/4 and ISO 1000.
