Formation at night
Flying night formation with the Puma and NGV the ideal angle would be found by looking down the exhaust and adjusting so the bright light from the power turbine lit up. A check abeam to make sure you were level with the blue light on the pylon and you were there.

Sorry, to be clear, the photo I took was on the early fly past.... Night then set on the city, and it was pitch dark at the time of the next flyby. It was advertised that it was the same aircraft, so you're right. I assume it was the Growler, however ... I'm pretty sure it was. They flew by at 19.04 to signal the start of the fireworks.
I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could
