As the balloon drifts past, some can be seen gazing at the brightly lit windows of the replica below, while others focus on the heavy littering of stars. Right there, where clouds and heavens meet. As the hazy light turns a whiter shade of pale, uniform shades of blue and green and grey blot out all earthly references below, and they ride and they ride, with great expectations and the hope nevermore having to look back, burning brightly. In their brittle little hearts.

October 18, 2012. A scale model of the planned renovation of the site of the Museum of Central Africa, Tervuren, Belgium, was on display in its entrance hall, in the build-up to its closing in 2014. Part of the scale model is pictured here. The hot air balloon was captured from the ground somewhere in Dutchess County, upstate New York, United States.

Special thanks to my dear friend Thomas for the photograph of the magnificent hot air balloon.
