I am really surprised I wasn’t called out on my Facebook wall with yesterday’s posting about Angle. Because those two images were to put politely, damn weak. They might have been a start though if you recognize it’s a weak angle before you leave the photograph! Great light can only help so far so when the sun slipped behind a cloud again, I walked around the helo looking to the right angle for the length of the helo. This click here. But it’s no better then a “I was here shot” which in my book is a notch above shit.

So the first thing I went for was seeing light was coming out was if I could make the helo look bad ass. I went down low and lined up all the lines so you can’t help but make contact with the cockpit. Real clean background, dramatic clouds and soft light (barely see a shadow on the side of the helo) so I was happy with this click. But better can be had.

OK, sun came out making it a little brighter so I darted back over to the side, hit the ground and made the click. We are getting much better but…but we should never settle so we keep looking for the better shot. mtc
