Helicopter and Photographer
These photographs were taken by Richard Wainscoat in a Hughes 500
helicopter. The rear door of the helicopter was removed. The
photographs were taken using a Mamiya 645 Pro camera mounted on a
gyroscopic stabilizer, and with a Nikon N90S camera with telephoto
zoom lens. Special thanks are due to the pilot, Marty Williams, for
his excellent flying. This photo was taken by Andy Perala of the
W.M. Keck Observatory, who provided a great deal of help in organizing
this photo shoot..
