This is Mulki from Dubai, Just joined the Forum, and am taking a ride in a hot air balloon over the deserts this weekend. Wanted some tips on photography from that height. I use a Nikon D3000 with the 70-300mm lens.

Welcome to the forum, Mulki.

With 18-55 you can be more creative, by including the balloon you would be travelling in, in frame.
Just my two cents.
Best of luck. Enjoy your ride
