About Snapped in a hurry as it flew beneath me while I was on a hike in the Lake District. Can anyone tell me what sort of helo this is? Somehow managed to avoid motion blur at 1/200sec. Why can't I do that when I hold the flippin' thing still???!!
Many thanks!!

Well Steve, My english isn?t good enought to understand exactly what you asked for.
I?m not a expert photographer, but I think 1/200 isn't faster enought to freeze the helix. You could use 1/1000 or higher to do it.
But you got an excellent pannig effect here, I really enjoy this shot!
Congrats dear friend!
Roberto.

Wow, great capture, very unusual angle, refreshing and well done.

Good action shot of a RAF Puma HC-1. This is the type of shot that appeals to aviation enthusiasts as it looks "tactical" as opposed to an airshow shot that often has distractions, like consession stands or a baricade of some sort. I am jealous as it looks like an air-to-air shot! The composition is helped by the diagonal line of flight and room in the frame so the bird has a place to go into the frame.

Well done.

Now that is unusual - helicopters aren't usually seen - 'flying below' !!! :) great capture - many years ago I probably could have given you an answer - many hours spent playing 'top trumps' with my son and he loved the helicopter ones
