In Pictures: Hot air balloons brighten skies over Bristol
Hot air balloons have taken off in a mass ascent from Bristol, with 43 teams taking part.
The Fiesta Flypast event over the city took place as a socially distanced alternative to the Bristol International Balloon Fiesta.
Organisers urged the public to enjoy the spectacle from their doorsteps and gardens, rather than gathering to watch take-off or landing.
Up, up and away! #Bristol, we are go! Keep your eyes on the sky this morning for the #fiestaflypast!
Please head to the garden, pop your head out the window and share your pictures with us at @bristolballoonpic.twitter.com/kkwfMfjdOg
