I've always shot the Red Arrows from Onchan or Douglas head but I headed down the beach as I had some decent shots from there of the Typhoon at last years MGP. This is my favourite shot from the display a nice low pass #iomtt#iomttraces#ttraces#ttraces2026#tt2026#nikon #nikonz9 #redarrows @rafredarrows
All smiles at Midlands Air Festival. Fantastic to meet so many people - including lots of families and aspiring young aviators - before the Red Arrows displayed at Ragley Hall.
