Here's something you don't see every day!
The small helicopter landed in a swamp, and started sinking. In order not to lose it, the large one was called in for an emergency recovery, to pull it out before it disappeared under the raft of papyrus reeds! To see more Skywatch photos, go to the site and follow the links, you'll see wonderful photos and meet a great bunch of people from around the world!
I have been out of blogland for a while, but am looking forward to visiting around tomorrow, now that life is getting back to normal.
as promised, some new work

Ahh, great shot. Correct your URL on skywatch, otherwise, some skywatchers won't be lucky to see such amazing shot. See you
thanks ana, I asked imac to fix it!
Love your beautiful capture. Happy sky watch Friday.. Hope you can visit my entry too.
Looks almost like a mother-helicopter with child!
wow great shot - so pleased you posted again.
Sorry - with not being on the team anymore I cannot delete for you.Klaus or any member of the team will help.
Oh this one's really great! You have captured this moment really well.
My SWF posts are here and here. Hope you can stop by if you can, it'll be very much appreciated. Happy weekends!
An intriguing shot - o course one wonders what it was doing in the swamp in the first place.
Thanks Imac, will follow up....
Ackworth, the same question occurred to me, but it happened in a war zone recently, and one can't ask too many questions! By the way, I saw the pictures of the actual link up before they took off, with people to give a sense of scale, and that little helicopter is not so little! The rescue one is HUGE! In this photo they both look like toys!
What an amazing photo. Beautiful sky and an unusual bit of action!
like the shot...great capture. and the powerful clouds framing it...beautiful.
What a great cumulus cloud. Love the dragonflies!
After reading your piece on taxis, I wonder what other traumas you have had to deal with.
Dramatic stuff. Glad it was sorted
Great shot. looks like a puffy cotton ball of cloud.

Must have been an interesting rescue to watch. Altho I haven't been a consistent blogger or commentator myself, I have enjoyed my visits to your blog. May 2009 bring you and your loved ones good health and great happiness and joy!
Beautiful shot, so so beautiful.
