This was the Queen's official birthday. Every year the army do a military parade in London for the Queen (trooping the colour) and it is finished off with an RAF Flypast. This year i was lucky enough to be on board the Tristar for the flypast. We had 2 Tornado GR4's one on each wing. I hope this shot captures my excitement as the 2 Tornado's joined us over RAF Marham. I know it wasn't dusk on the flight but it made the shot more atmospheric :P hope you enjoy. Good luck to everyone :)

Excellent composition in this shot.  8-)

I agree with your choice on the atmosphere of the shot, and having the sun & moon in it at once, always makes for good eye candy.  [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
