Motorcycle Travel Series by @velimir 'Flying Instead of Riding?' (Part #332)
'Flying Instead of Riding?'
Since the dawn of the man, through the long centuries, there was an unfulfilled wish. We watched the birds and envied them for their wings, for all that freedom they had while flying high above our heads.
It took time to think and experiment. Many of us failed badly but in the end, we've finally reached the skies and gained the pleasure of watching the world from bird's perspective.
Today, everyone can fly. Hot air balloon is one of several ways to raise oneself above the ground. I park my bike and enter a crowded place where the ballons are set.
The principle is simple. The burner heats the air and, as hot air is lighter than the cold one, it lifts the balloon and it moves according to the air currents. As long as the air is constantly re-heated, the balloon flies. When its time to land, the pilot simply lets it gradually cool down to the point of gentle descent.
The gas for heating the air is packed tightly in the basket with the passengers.
I thought I was going to fly in one of those baskets today, but the forecast stopped the show. At least, I'll have something to look forward to in the future. Hope has a strange way of promising things. We all love to believe those promises. Wonder if we'd ever been flying if there was no hope.
Enjoy your day! :-)

your travelling post always talented..its really your high thought quality knowledge skills matter..i am really appreciate your post.. just excellent shots photography of air baloon.i am first time to seeing this air baloon photo.. Today we see a beautiful photo of a balloon. I have long wanted to experience this incredible feeling and fly on such a ball. But alas, until life gave me such an opportunity. I am confident in the future I will do it. I have a hope.The principle of such a ball is relatively simple. But the main thing is that everyone can afford to fly on it. Earlier this could only be dreamed of. You correctly mentioned the word hope. After all, it has a sacred meaning in achieving our desires. We are filled with hope and therefore create an idea of such an event. Mentally we ponder this. Human thoughts are material. So if you really want it, you will find a chance to get. The balloon crew basketball constantly adds hot gas so that the balloon can reach the desired height. Once the desired height is reached the balloon crew can reduce the hot gas by opening the parachute valve until a balanced state is achieved, ie the buoyancy force with the weight of the balloon. It is at this time that a hot air balloon can fly in the air.thanks to dharing for your best creativity knowledge..my dear friend.. @velimir.i respect your thought..take care yourself and best of luck of your great work..
As with most fluids, the laws of Archimedes can also be applied to the air because the air includes fluids. The Law of Archimedes: The floating force acting on an object dipped partially or entirely into a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid that is maintained by the object. This principle is the basis for how the air balloon works.
The following will describe how the blimp works, first the balloon is filled with hot gas or hydrogen until the balloon can bubble and the volume of air in the balloon increases. This means the buoyant force will increase as well. When the buoyant force is greater than the total weight of the balloon, then at that moment slowly the air balloon will rise.
The balloon crew (basketball) constantly adds hot gas so that the balloon can reach the desired height. Once the desired height is reached the balloon crew can reduce the hot gas by opening the parachute valve until a balanced state is achieved, ie the buoyancy force with the weight of the balloon. It is at this time that a hot air balloon can fly in the air. But not only is it necessary for the balloon to fly, the balloon crew also makes use of the wind blow moving the balloon from one position to another.
Since ancient times, people have attempted to fly. Various uncomplicated aircraft were created. Uvv but many of them failed. But thanks to the attempts of these brave pioneers and testers, we have the opportunity to be highly charged into the air. To date, there are many ways to take off. The most popular is the aircraft. But today it's not about them ...

Good photos, good day to you!
Love to nature and environment is a sentence that we often hear lately on television and other sources of information.
Love to nature and environment is a sentence that invites us to always keep the nature and the environment where we stand the earth, The sentence consists of words meaningful of Love, Nature, and environment.
Love is a love for something good to human beings as well as in other things, Nature is what is in our environment where the place has existed from the first since the creation of our place of residence that is earth, Environment is the area where we live or that is adjacent to the place our lives that affect the development of human life both directly and indirectly.
So Love to Nature and the environment is a love / affection to our nature including the earth and where we live, essentially we must keep our nature and environment so as not to be damaged by the hands of ignorant ignorant hands.
Beautiful photographs of a process that has always fascinated me. It is so simple and yet so complex.
We have a modest 'balloon festival' here in Yuma every winter. 30 or so balloons launch just after the sun. It is spectacular and beautiful to say the least, and a ride I've never taken.
Thank you! I really look forward to your actual flight.
Wow nice , now is flying on the sky . Beautiful photography , keep good work every time .
Your post is always different i follow your blog everytime , your post is so helpful . I always inspire of your post on my steem work . Thank you for sharing @velimir
The travel should be long deserve
No we never be able to fly if there were no hope and hopefully you'll get the chance to fly in hot air baloon next time, be careful with the gas cylinder 😉 stay blessed.
Flying in the air with no wings.
That is what I really wanted to do when I was a kid, I use to have dreams of me flying in the sky, going around and some time to the other city :p
hahaha, that's sound quite funny but it is the truth.
In my dreams, I used to fly with my both hands :p
the amazing thing about that fly was that it was free :p
NO expense of going around here and there, no expense of Air balloons, no expense of Aeroplanes.
sir, @velimir I really wanted to share my words about flying with you but i think you didn't got the chance to read it :(
Great experiance.
I had a dram to fly sky with hot air ballon.but not possible in my country
