    The Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, The Red Arrows currently deployed on Exercise WESTERNHAWK 2019.

    It is the first time the Red Arrows have been to North America since 2008 and the deployment will be the most ambitious tour of Canada and the United States ever undertaken by the team ñ going coast-to-coast. With stops across the continent, the tour comprises a combination of nearly 20 aerobatic displays, several iconic flypasts and 100 separate ground engagement activities ñ from business receptions to sessions aimed at inspiring young people.

    Each show is a demonstration of creativity, engineering excellence and innovation ñ not just hallmarks of the Red Arrows and RAF but of the proven capabilities, strengths and skills of the UK.

    The tour is an indication of the UKís continuing commitment to enduring relationships, mutual prosperity and extensive security cooperation in the region. Moreover, the tour provides chance to celebrate and enhance international trade and investment between the UK, Canada and the US, worth more than £208 billion in 2018.

    Speaking at the Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT), Gloucestershire, Minister for the Armed Forces, Mark Lancaster, said: ìThe United Kingdom shares a deep and enduring defence relationship with both Canada and the US.

    ìSending our world-famous RAF Red Arrows demonstrates the UKís global ambitions and will provide a unique opportunity to strengthen our partnerships with two of our closest allies.î

    Wing Commander Andrew Keith, Officer Commanding, Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, said: ìTours by the Red Arrows have always been an important role of the team ñ aiming to demonstrate RAF expertise, helping to highlight UK excellence across a range of sectors and celebrating close connections with friends and allies.

    Photographer Captures Intriguing X-rays of Toys
    Australian photographer Brendan Fitzpatrick has spent 20 years documenting the skylines of cities around the world.

    His latest series called Invisible Light looks at how x-ray technology can be used to reveal the surprisingly beautiful internal structures of simple objects like tulips, crabs, and toy replicas of robots and helicopters.

    The project uses chest X-rays and mammogram machines to explore the inner workings of various objects and natural forms.

    The 45-year-old has scanned toy robots, a toy gun, flowers and even a hen's eggs revealing their complex interiors.

    The Sydney based photographer explains that he was inspired to look at X-rays while researching for a commercial job.

    "The art directors wanted an X-ray effect which I assumed would be created using negatives etc. I never thought it worked so I explored the possibility of using real X-rays. I was very lucky to find a radiologist willing to work with me."

    The photographer explains that the project is ongoing, and that he hopes to bring more depth and complexity to his interpretation of the subjects in the future.

    Brendan believes the X-ray toys and models would make great wall art. He says that the large acrylic prints of the robots will light up a boy's bedroom or geek's cave big time

    "The flowers are rather more subtle, often I find people don't realise it's an X-ray image."

    Brendan says the X-ray technique allowed him to work with a fairly blasé set of subjects, creating images that are really unique and beautiful but also entertaining and fun.

    Six beetles photographed mating at the same time, Seruyan, Indonesia - 13 Apr 2011
    This group of six beetles was photographed while all mating at the same time on a spiral-shaped cucumber stem. Amateur photographer Nordin Seruyan captured the rare leaf beetle scene as he snapped away at insects in a field. The 34-year-old was able to get the fleeting moment on camera before the self-conscious creatures became aware of his presence and flew away. Nordin, from Seruyan, in Indonesia, patiently waits for hours in order to photograph interesting insect behaviour close up in their natural habitat. The father of two said: "I was in a local field and saw one pair of the beetles so moved closer to take their picture. "It was only when I was a few centimetres away that I saw there were actually three pairs of the creatures. "I took my moment and managed to get a quick photograph before they noticed me and flew off. "I felt very lucky because to capture a pair of insects mating is quite common but to get so many together like this is extremely rare."

    Beautiful Bugs
    A ladybird looks like it is flashing a cheeky cartoon-like grin as it takes off from the top of a mushroom.

    Photographer Leon Baas, 35, used a special close-up lens to capture the bug in spectacular detail.

    He then lit the scene with an orange flash to give the picture an added sense of drama and atmosphere.

    Leon, who also works as a mechanic, has developed his own style of brightly coloured macro-photography over eight years.

    He has snapped ants, snails, water beetles, crickets and damselfly - all lit in his own artistic way.

    In order to get the best shots he carefully researches the creatures he hopes to photograph so he can try to predict their behaviour.

    By magnifying the creatures, Leon is able to show their eyes, antennae, legs and wings in ways that have rarely been seen before.

    He said: "The way spiders and insects look fascinates me.

    "I worked as a wedding photographer but my eyes were always more attracted to the bugs on the beautiful flowers than they were to the bride.

    "My interest in nature and macro photography grew quickly from there."

    Leon, from Geldermalsen, Netherlands, added: "It is very hard to take the shot at the right moment. You must be very alert.

    "I always try to ensure the colour and creatures' poses are perfect.

    "They sometimes look a bit like an alien and can appear threatening.

    "The shot of the flying ladybird is a once in a lifetime photograph. I am very happy with it and do not think it will ever happen again - it feels great."

    Amazing close-up pictures show deadly beauty of mantises, Costa Brava, Spain - 07 Sep 2010
    With bulbous eyes and their strange stick-like bodies, these mantises look like creatures from another planet. Perched on the tiny stem of a plant, one insect enjoys a lunch of tiny yellow aphids. Another picture shows a mantis about to pounce on an unwitting butterfly and one incredible shot even shows the creatures in larvae form, not much bigger than a thorn. These incredible close-ups were snapped by wildlife enthusiast Jimmy Hoffman. The 50-year-old scours the vegetation around his home in the Costa Brava, Spain, looking for the insects. He said: "I've been interested in nature since I was a child and I've always had an eye for wildlife, especially insects. "Praying mantids are my favourite because of their special predatory behaviour, shapes and colours".

    UNICEF goodwill ambassador David Beckham visited Sierra Leone from 18th-20th January to call international attention to the issue of child survival.
    From 18-20 January 2008 footballer and UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador David Beckham was in Sierra Leone to call international attention to the issue of child survival, and to highlight the 26,000 children who die around the world of mostly preventable causes. His visit preceded the launch of UNICEF'S State of the World's Children 2008 report. According to the report, in Sierra Leone, under-five mortality and maternal mortality rates are the highest in the world; one in four of the country's children die before reaching their 5th birthday. While in the country, Beckham visited a UNICEF-supported heath centre in the town of Makeni to learn about maternal and child health interventions. He also visited community projects promoting disease-prevention efforts, as well as a feeding centre for severely malnourished children, before finding time to play football with some of the youngsters he met. He also visited the capital of Freetown to meet children affected by HIV/AIDS.
