 Taken during a boat tour out to Fort Sumter In Charleston, SC. This Helicopter was out doing exercises of some sort, and flew directly over the boat several times. I chose this one out of the many that I took because you can clearly see the crew member sitting in the open door. I would have liked to get more rotation in the blades, but this was not exactly a planned shot and the copter was cruising along at a pretty good clip.

Good shot of a copter in flight and being able to tell the rotors are indeed spinning.

I love helicopter pix. It's almost impossible to stop their rotors completely!

This seems cropped a little too tightly on the left to me. Nice shot though.
