Hi PentaxPoke!
I talked to my Dad about your Photos concerning the book on International Ballooning he is currently doing. He is a Professor for English & American Literature at the University of Siegen, Germany (
Universität Siegen | Studieren - Forschen - Leben | Preface ) and this book is his LAST project at university before finally settling for retirement.
There will be only 4000 copies of the book, which is done in co-operation with a local Hot-Air-Ballooning-Club and many many people around the globe. There are some nice chapters about extreme ballooning in the Himalayas and New Mexico (Alburqurque).
If you would be interested in getting your images published with a brief text about your personal balloon photo adventure, let me know. Four pages could be provided and translation of your narrative from English to German.
Of course you would receive a signed copy of the book.
The only problem on our behalf is time: The book should be ready for print by the first week of August!
Just drop me a line:

Kindest regards, Jörg Hippo Thomsen
