Hi Hans,
Wow, they do look incredibly close! Quite a deceptive POV though ;). Outstanding clarity, the soft blue sky has provided a great BG for the details to stand out against. Can see both pilots with ease, they must have alot of guts (not to mention adrenaline!). Well captured mate.

TFS,
Scott.

These are of course the moments that keep us going back to air shows. I really hope I will be able to attend at least one this summer. Fantastic timing and detail!! TFS

Nice action shot. Yes, it appears that they are close to each other but I suppose one copter is safely above the other but viewed from below againstthe blue sky they appear about to hit each other. Nice capture.

ooo no kidding! That is way too close! One wrong move and it's over! this is well caught Hansie! I might would have saturated a little more, but that's just me. I posted a photo for you today! Hope you like it!

Hi Hans,

I got chills when I saw the thumbnail! Your POV accentuates the perceived danger, but these guys know what they're doing. I often watch bigger choppers than this land on the helipad across the street from where I work, and that's some pretty tight maneuvering.

Very sharp as the pilots are very visible and you've almost frozen the rotation of the blades. Well done!

Best regards,
Werner

Hi Hans,
You captured this interesting moment very well, I think it looks a bit frightening from this POV. But you were definitely standing at the right place to present this one... Clarity is really great, sharp and and proper exposition. Well done, TFS!
Greetings,
Kristof

Hi Hans, Spectacular and bit scary to see those choppers so close in flight. The clarity of the vehicles is as good as it gets. I always enjoy seeing your aerial compositions. TFS. Murray.
