The Few

The Royal Air Force Red Arrows Aerobatic Display Team captured at the Scottish International Airshow in Ayr, Scotland in September 2018.

"Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few." - Winston Churchill

Today marks the 80th Anniversary of the commencement of The Battle of Britain. We should never forget the few who sacrificed so much to protect our island from invasion. They gave the best that they had under increasingly pressing circumstances - lest we forget.

Captured handheld with the EF70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM lens and 2x Mk III converter for 400mm focal length.
