Travelling along Southport’s Coastal Road at Marshside, eagle-eyed folks could perhaps have been forgiven for wondering what the strange cloud of distant UFOs over the River Ribble’s estuary actually consisted of. Had ET landed at Blackpool or…?

I got the super-zoom out to discover more about these distant flying objects. They appeared to be kites. A quick Google search soon revealed that this was indeed a kite festival at Lytham St Annes.
Above: crowds of people on the other side of the Ribble estuary with their kites.
