Fluidr / T-Rex 500 Captured at 1/2500 Second by Ed Suominen

A 1/2500 sec. shutter speed freezes the blades in motion. And they are moving fast, especially the tail.

To emphasize the helicopter, I de-saturated the green, did a bit of selective sharpening, and manually brushed out some of the highlights from the tree trunks. All with Lightroom.
