….and you know you are standing where it is going to land…..
Do yourself a favor, and move somewhere else…. especially if it is your first time next to a large helicopter landing. The movies do not really show how intense the wind actually is…
Of coarse the movies do not show photographers standing right underneath them either.

You can see the dirt and debris in the last one.  You can not see the wind that I thought was going to strip the clothes off of my body.

On my way home from the gym last night I could not help but notice the sky. There was a full moon, and the clouds really added a dramatic look. I tried to hard to make it home as fast as possible to grab my camera. Of course, by the time I got my camera the clouds shifted and lost the look I was hoping to capture. So I just drove to the park and just sat there for an hour waiting for another could formation to come through again….

The funny thing though. I never have any issues holding my camera steady, but since I had JUST worked out, my arms where really shaky, and I had to use a garbage can in the park as a tripod..

(On a side note.. It never hit me that one could get a lens flare from the moon)
