a few out-takes from the san diego mag shoot.
tips for shooting from a helicopter:
1. don't eat a big lunch
2. minimize composing images though the viewfinder
3. have a shot list and plan of attack for a flight path
4. dress warm
5. buckle in
6. as you climb, have read the altimeter to you can give the pilot altitude direction when your shooting - most of my shots were 100-500 feet, and now i know just about exactly where to be to communicate it
have fun!
if anyone wants to go on a helicopter shoot, we can share the cost;-)

It does look really fun... I'm also interested in the cost. Also, what was the problem with composing through the viewfinder... too sporadic?

Nice images and looks like great fun. Approx. how much is splitting the costs?
