Helicopter's main rotor blades
October 1 is City Daily Photo Theme Day and this month the theme is MOTION.
FYI: You're correct, this post is alive one day early because I accidentally uploaded today's post (Gray Jays) yesterday!
This time of year, one way to see and photograph the colourful trees in Algonquin Provincial Park is to fly over them in a helicopter.
Helicopter
The helicopter filled my camera screen and - even though the machine was moving slowly- it was quite low and I had trouble keeping it totally in my view finder. Here I clipped the propeller!

Like the yellow against all that blue. Stunning.
Such excellent clear shots of movement! Seems like one passenger has his leg out the helicopter! Whatever it takes to get a good picture. :)
you were getting a jump start on motion. ;)
Well shot!
Nice job on capturing the motion on both the propeller and the tail rotor. It always amazes me that even though the blades are going fast you can still see through them. I can remember sitting in awe of that while watching a fan even as a child. Great shots ...

perfect for the theme and i love the tail shot at The End of the post... so when do you ride in the helicopter to gt shots for us
Glad to see the tail rotor. Never paid attention to that before.
On a side note, talking about Algonquin; did you know about Stephen Jenkinson? http://orphanwisdom.com
His movie is very profound.
Peace :)
Great job on those photos EG. That guy looks like he is taking a photo of you taking a photo of him :)
Wow, now this is very clever for a motion theme! What striking captures.
Nice capture! I love how you caught the motion of the rotor blades.
Cool tail shot.
Nice pop of yellow!
Very nice shots! I would never be able to lean outside and look down like those people are.
Great shots for the day as always! A great pop of yellow indeed! Hope your week is going well!!
Motion is not easy to picture , you did well !
Love the post below, how cute!!
I agree with Denise. I do believe he's taking pictures of you taking pictures of him. :-)
I wouldn't be hanging out of that thing for a shot!
Wonderful yellow against the blue sky. great shots
Fun! I'd love to helocpter over some of my favorite sites, like the Grand Canyon and Monument Valley!
It's unusual to see a chopper fly so low. You got yourself so good shots.
Good grief it is low!!! And your pictures are superb! That man needs to get his leg back in the chopper!! A beautiful big yellow bird, and try saying that five times fast.
I wouldn't mind seeing Algonquin that way!
Great captures for the theme!
Beautiful yellow against the blue sky.

Yep that yellow against the blue sky is stunning!
Anything moving is a challenge to shoot, so I commend you. Your blog has such variety and I love that!
Great captures!
Good shot for 'Movement'. It's ok to be a little early because at least you didn't forget. haha!!

that's a great capture for motion.
Hope no one was in trouble.

Great choice for movement and the yellow color is so cool!
I wouldn't want to be hanging out the door like that one guy is.
Superb! You’ve made a great Theme Day post. I'm glad you picked these to share with us.
Excellent shot for the theme EG, have you taken that ride to get the shots of the trees from above?
