Belfast City was the host to one of the biggest Tall Ships display events in Europe. This years event saw no less than 15 vessels of all shapes and sizes being berthed at the dockside in Belfast Harbour estate. Colin Williams Photography was chosen to cover all professional aerial stills from our Robinson helicopter. The majority of Tall Ship aerial photography is now available from within our online library, some examples are hosted below.The event which was managed by Belfast City Council welcomed 500.000 visitors to the free four day event.. From the air the scene was stunning and Im sure the ground atmosphere was electric. 

A host of open air stalls to satisify anyone.

The new Lagan footbridge undergoing rigorous testing.

Thrill rides to satisfy everyone young and old

Not forgetting the Crew parade

But all in time for a tasty sip outside McHughs Bar and Restaurant
