This photo taken by Kani Polat is of hot air balloons hovering over a ancient rock formation .  I think the composition of this photograph works really well.  I like the placement of all of the hot air balloons.  The red balloon in the upper left hand corner really stands out and closely follows the rule of thirds. From the red balloon the viewers eye jumps to the other colorful balloons that stand out against the background. It was taken at a great time of day where the sun was low so it created a lot of interesting shadows in the landscape and highlighted the mountains in the distance.  I also like this picture because of the contrast between the hot air balloons and the landscape.  You never would think to find a dozen brightly colored hot air balloons flying over a rocky desolate area.
