Great shot!
That's a great b&w photo!
If you need to be rescued.... he's not far away! ;-) Nice B/W.
At least you were not waiting for this ride. Fine, sharp b&w photo.
Hope that it was nothing serious! Fine picture. Have a good weekend!
That is a great shot. The coast guard helicopters fly over my house too, now that the weather is warmer.
That is stupendous - so much better than my colour version.
Great capture.
Great shot. I have helicopters fly over my house regularly but never get as good of a shot of them as this one.
Great view of the helicopter in action. Like how the sign of the coastguard clearly seems to be emblazoned on the side.
Like everyone said this is a great b/w shot.
Visiting from BLACK AND WHITE WEEKEND.
