Almost missed this shot with my zoom lens.

Wow . . . nice shot. Sometimes it is hard to find and or pickup those gems such as this, in the heat of the moment. It reminds me of when we used to get 'buck' fever. Glad you were able to 'snatch' this out of the sky.

I have this same shot, taken at dusk, not near mountains (same angle, same chopper - different serial number).

Great shot.

What mountains are those?

Thanks folks, and belmondo,those are the back door mountains to the Cascade Range.Those hills are "Mission Ridge" , its called.Great snow ski lodge and area in the wintertime here.Those little sportster copters are very quick on the take off,I was so lucky to snap at the right time.
