Our mission: Document this month's progress on the fish hatcheries for the Fish and Wildlife Department.
My mission: Take as many photographs as I could hold in my media card, then download them to their computers.
Notes: John removed the doors of the helicopter to make better photographing possible. It was cold up there. I quickly learned to keep my telephoto lens away from the doorway and the gusting wind. I also learned not to feel concerned about composition, for the helicopter moved about so much, it worked better to just click away. Click on an image to enlarge it. Enjoy.
