In Honor Of Opening Day: Colorado Rockies Game Aerial Over Downtown Denver And LoDo

In honor of Opening Day, 2011…

This shot is of Coors Field with a Colorado Rockies game being played. It is one of my favorites, out of thousands and thousands of shots, BECAUSE I GOT TO FLY OVER A ROCKIES GAME!

I get inquiries about it often, and have decided to offer it on my site, here, for those interested in purchasing it. As a shot that came out of 2 megapixel point-and-shoot camera (a Canon Elph) while I was literally hanging out in the wind from a helicopter with no doors, the quality is amazing and I can print it out easily at least an 8×10″ size to frame and hang for any true fan.

It was taken on my Rotors Of The Rockies helicopter flight around Denver with my friend, Mike Fyola, piloting. A few of the shots from that flight were used by Rotors Of The Rockies for their brochures and web site a few years ago, and were my first published commercial shots!

Pilot Mike Fyola worked with me at Jeffco Sheriff’s Office, and left to open his own helicopter pilot instruction business, Rotors of the Rockies, at Rocky Mountain Airport. He took me up in a Schweitzer with a 300cc engine. Because of the summertime heat and the fact that we were both over 200lbs, he calculated that we had to take off the doors to save weight and have a safe flight.

What can I shoot for you?
