I was going through some of my old photos earlier when I came across this shot. I'd been in Washington DC a few years back to shoot the Cherry Blossom Festival and the whole time I was there helicopters kept buzzing over the Jefferson Memorial/Tidal Basin area. As a kid I was fascinated by military hardware and so I had to snap a few shots as they flew by. Unless I'm badly mistaken, this is a Bell UH-1 Huey (the old Vietnam War workhorse) with the Washington Monument in the background. The pilot with his elbow hanging out the window like he's cruising along in a car has amused me greatly.
