[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I often seen helicopters flying over my head but never tried one myself until I got the chance yesterday. The new trend among busy businessmen/women are to own their own chopper – alternatively can they rent one for trips down Europe (price say 2000 Euro/hour for a 7 persons flight)

Shot #2 – Take off with lots of dust and turbulence in the air.

Shot #3 – An air view of the city of Odense.

Rotorbladet der stikker frem i billedet er meget effektivt til at holde kompositionen sammen, og fyren der kigger ind ad vinduet får hele maskinen til at se lidt klejn ud.
Det er umiddeltbart de to ting, jeg lægger mest mærke til. Baggrunden er lidt rodet, og jeg tror at jeg vile have foretrukket mere vidvinkel og en lidt lavere sysnvinkel for at give lidt mere dynamik til billedet.
Men det store mysterium er, hvordan du både kunne tage billeder af take-off set udefra og samtidig være inde i helikopteren? Taler vi om astrallegemer eller doppeltgangere her?

Hi Jeppe

Wonderful shot! I like the perspective and how you capture the helicopter into your frame. Very nice colors and lighting. Very nice shots into the workshop too.

Jeppe
Great perspective and well framed shot. Good colours adding to impact.
Regards Colin

Davs Jeppe, hvordan er høsten i Danmark?

I think you have managed a beutiful perspective, like Torben mentions the main rotor blade creates a great catcher to the view and really pulls the eye closer to the helicopter.
I may add that it is a Bell 222... just paint it black play a little appropriate music and you got your own little airwolf here!

Colours are very brilliant, the bright red of the stands out perfectly.
I agree that the guy looking into the cockpit adds a nice element of size and human perspective, but who was it? Certainly not the pilot?

Overall the photo looks magnificent.
Thank you for sharing

Hi Jeppe

Good choice of a wide angled pov with excelelnt colour & sharpness. I like the red & blue colour combo. Tfs!

That is a good Photo report Jeppe with a great quality of picture. Nice to se that you can leave you Island by air ( quite expensive :-))
Well done with the angle
I like it

Hi Jeppe, nice to see a new photo from you. It must have been an exciting opportunity for you with the first-time heli ride. This one is simple but nice, I like the wide-angle approach and the way in which the rotor blade just about fits inside the frame. The guy curiously peeking into the cockpit is a good add. Thanks for loading the WS photos, good storytelling with the 3 combined shots.

How was it the experience? I like this perspective Jeppe, somehow it invites you to fly right away. And I can see the sky was great too. Thanks for share the experience.

Hi Jeppe,

Great wideangle shot on this chopper. Liked the way you captured the propellers and exposure. TFS!

Hi Jeppe! I myself haven't tried riding in one yet. So how was it? Good catch here, I like the way the propellers are positioned with respect to your location...it makes the chopper bigger and more intimidating! Your other photos make us feel like we're there as well during the tour! rgds.

Hi Jeppe.
You got the chopper from an interesting angle here.
I know you went up. I haven't brought my camera with me.
Lovely shots you have got - might have been difficult to keep the camera quite/still while chopping.
Well done-the extra too...
Jan

Hello Jeppe, it is really a chance to be able to fly in a so beautiful machine, excellent details colourful framing with the palle with foreground is extremely aesthetic, me I admire piqué of the image as well as clearness and the well gauged exposure, as for the specialist in this kind of flying object they will be with the angel, sincerely

Hi Jeppe.
What an impressive perspective you captured here. The dynamic effect is really impressive. The attitude of the curious man looking into the helicopter is interesting as well.
Thanks for sharing!

Hi Jeppe

Nice comp and color. Very sharp. Great pov. The rotor blade of the helicopter makes the image. Well done.
