Sunset Display at Old Warden on Saturday. The display didn't start until 7 pm so we got that beautiful golden light when the sun is getting low.

I left for home when the Spitfire landed at 9 pm. They were talking about waiting 30 minutes for the wind to drop so they could fly the Edwardian machines.
