Tvacom finishes MSN shoot

A beautiful way to end a 3 week shoot. A hot air balloon ride from Napavalleyballoons.com. With a few specialty cams rigged to the balloon, 1 camera and 1 audio to follow the action, a pleasant 50 minute flight covering about 10 miles at 2000 feet with the sun rising had everyone in a great mood.
