Gorgeous! A little photoshop work eleminating that red flare and it would be perfection.

@Helen: yes, I was tempted to remove the glare but was afraid you would be able to see the 'patch'. thanks for your comment, I still might try editing the original.

The stars on the balloon and the twirl of the ribbon are pure awesomeness. the sky color very calming too.
