That is something else, but with all due respect for the quality, if you'd moved the POV so the chopper was offset a bit ,or slightly above the "island" back there... it'd be just perfect, IMHO.

Looks a great chopper, agree with rottydaddy on the composition, though at the same time it looks like you were standing somewhere and got the best shot you could, quickly - with a camera! In other words, it gives a feeling of realism more than if you mess about with F1 or W+F for ages. So I like it how it is...

Yes, well a few more feet down the deck, there's a bunch of tire marks from where I was practicing landings. :P I agree though, to make it look like those stock Navy photos.

Thanks for your comments, both. :)

Nice shot, but I still maintain, if it isn't in brown green cammo and has skids its not a proper lynx.  ;D
