As said, not photoshopped. From what I remember the 747 gave quite a spirited bit of a solo display after. Case of "well if they can do it, so can I!" I guess.

Just a little bit of processing in Lightroom to try and lift it somewhat from the British murk.

Nice composition. The Reds' reds really stand out even in the murk!

A nice photo, shame it's not a BA jet I hope maybe in the next couple of years we'll see this only with a BA A380 though nothing will beat the displays with concord

It's amazing what the big jets can actually do

It was great to see at Biggin hill, They flew all the way down the Thames from Southend in formation.

That is a bloody brilliant photograph.

You're onto a winner anyway with a colour palette like that - and with such iconic ingredients - but it has enough depth in the sky to just lift everything in terms of contrast and colour. I like the crop too - enough breathing space around the planes but not too much dead space.
