Hopefully a few more came out well enough to post. I just got CS3 again so I can actually sharpen them correctly and resize properly.

 

Nice shots dude.

 

cool oppertunity....nice pix!

 

I don't know if 6 years is worth the opportunity yet, but I hope to be able to say that afterwards

 

Nice dude!

 

Nice shots!

 

repd for some nice pics bro.

 

nice! any pics of the guys jumping in the water? or were they just messing with the basket?

 

I'll edit and resize one with us tending the basket.

We were doing direct and trail line basket passing. I was on board a 47' MLB. The first few passes the helo made I couldn't get pics of because I was busy working on getting the basket on to the boat safely and then letting them pick it back up.

 

Heaving around on the trail line to bring the basket on board.
