 While I was at Southern Methodist University for a college visit (Mustang Days to be exact) they had this Med Flight type helicopter land on the main quad of the campus. It was an interesting entrance, as the wind caused by the rotors pushed the water being sprayed by the fountain almost down to nothing and swirled up lots of leaves.

A slightly longer shutter speed will get that rotor blur that works really well in helo pictures. Also I personally would have gone just a touch wider to try and capture more of the building in this shot
