Reason

Good, sharp, high quality image and a good angle. A possible criticism is the motionblurred rotors: unfortunately I didn't have time to prepare for the shot, I heard it coming, turned around and just had time to take a snap.

• Support The motion blur on the blades is acceptable IMO -- Muhammad (talk) 00:42, 20 February 2010 (UTC) reply
• Support I think the blur is actually desirable - it wouldn't look realistic with stationary blades. Noodle snacks ( talk) 03:19, 20 February 2010 (UTC) reply

• Weak support It's a pity the horizon cuts right through the helicopter, but still an excellent photo. I don't think the blurred blades are a problem at all. Calliopejen1 ( talk) 18:53, 26 February 2010 (UTC) reply
