Love is in the air

It's written in the sky - someone loves you. This amazing picture of a heart was created by jet plane vapour trails at an airshow in Russia. Onlookers were treated to the spectacular display by highly trained stunt pilots at the annual International Aviation and Space Salon event in Zhokovskiy, Moscow. On the ground watching was visitor and photographer Maria Mashkova, who caught the action on camera. The Sukhoi Russian jets flew overhead of the crowd before performing an amazing formation creating a giant love heart in the sky. Then seconds later another pilot flew through the heart forming what looked like a huge Cupid's bow. Miss Mashkova, 26, used her Canon 50d to to take this amazing snap which seems fitting for Valentine's lovers. She said: 'It was unexpected, suddenly two jets drew a heart in the sky above our heads. 'And the thirds jet flew through the heart like an arrow. 'I have only been photographing for a year and I was really pleased with the results of the photograph. 'Love was in the air you could say, and I am still amazed by the skill of those pilots.' Miss Mashkova said that as the aircraft performed the stunt last August the announcer on the loud speaker told the crowd: 'Great! Splendid! 'The aircraft is piercing the heart with the arrow of aviation Cupid! Dear Girls! Dear Ladies! Our pilots present you their heart!'
