Nope, not the birds but the mechanical one, the helicopter. I love the Blackhawk’s ruggedness and the sound of ‘phoop’ ‘phoop’ its rotors make. There’s only a civilian version that I’ve seen in KL – a white one with a couple of external fuel pods. But Scott Kelby recently shot some amazing chopper pictures and also of their pilots and crew and you can see his fantastic work over at his blog – check out those non-HDR HDR-like shots! I’d like to know how he made that!

Anyway, at the bottom of the post, there’s a shot of a pilot walking out of the hangar. The shot was intentionally overexposed but the result is fantastic. After viewing that shot, I post processed one very recent shot to have a similar effect. Whether or not it succeeds, you be the judge and let me know (click to enlarge). The difference is mine was unintentionally overexposed. I struggled a bit with the bleach white walls and the dark features of the temple entrance
