BEHIND THE SCENES
Air-to-air (A2A) shoot of a Sikorsky S70B Seahawk helicopter


This shoot was part of the production of a glossy magazine covering all aspects of the Western Australian naval base HMAS Stirling on Garden Island, near Perth. One of the many chapters covered their S70B Seahawk operations. These helicopters were usually based at sea on the RAN frigates, but would transition to Stirling for exercises and refits. I had the chance to shoot these amazing machines both at sea and around Garden Island just off Perth. Camera hand held @ 200 ISO. 28 -300mm Nikon lens, Nikon D800.
