Photographer Simon Balson claims he caught a 'UFO' in the photos of the famous Buckingham Palace flypast

'A photographer claims to have caught a UFO on the camera while taking photos of King Charles watching the
Coronation flypast. Yesterday (May 6) millions around the world watched as Charles was crowned King at
Westminster Abbey.
I want to believe... it doesn't rain all the time in England.
The day was well celebrated by the Brits across the city as more than 10,000 people gathered at The Mall for the
famous balcony moment and Coronation fly-past. However, during the flypast, a 'strange' phenomenon was caught
on camera by one of the photographers taking pictures of an
aerial display of the Red Arrows.
The weather was bad so there were no birds in the air, and I couldn't really see the planes so I didn't check the photos
until later. When I did though I spotted this weird object and just thought 'what the hell is that'. "I enhanced the image
and tried to increase the spec to see what it was, it looks like a floating acorn or something. All I could get is that it
had a little bit of a red top, but I just have no idea what it could be. "There have been lots of strange 'UFO' sightings
recently, so I thought other people might be able to guess what it was."
The military flypast over Buckingham Palace was scaled down due to low clouds and continuous rain.
The flypast was meant to include 14 waves with 60 aircraft, such as F-35B Lightning and Typhoon FGR4 jets, as well
as Spitfires, Hurricanes and a Lancaster. Later, the Ministry of Defence confirmed that their fleet will be composed of
helicopters and the renowned Red Arrows display team.
However, the Red Arrows 'waited until the last minute', and then eventually the plans were modified.
Tom Bould, the squadron Leader, told ITV News: "The whole flypast will be 1,000 feet, so we need the cloud base to
just be above that and right now the forecast is on those limits. "We will get airborne, we’ll go down to the hold and
then we will make those weather calls right up until the point where we’re due to be over the top of the palace.
"It’s the British weather, and you never know what’s going to happen."...'
