Illussion Balloon...

I first only saw the balloons. Don't we all love them? The childish memories that are freed in our souls. But then I noticed the bench. Japanese Satoshi Itasaka created the "Balloon Bench." As he tells: "This bench was visually inspired by the feeling of floating that the main character felt in the French movie "Le Ballon Rouge." The Balloon Bench appears to be suspended in mid air, held up by two bunches of red balloons. But this is not the reality, a great illusion it is. With that Itasaka successfully creates a illusion.  


And because the classic movie, from the year 1953, is lovely  I want to show you a small part from the story where a young boy befriends a red balloon after he's been loyally followed by it. Together they play in the streets of wonderful Paris and try to elude some boys who want to destroy the balloon. There is not a lot of talking in this movie, but the music gives it that old movie feeling. I see myself float in Paris, how about you?
