The Hover Barge Tow
Helicopters' photographer Ted Veal's most famous photographs. The use of a powerful telephoto lens makes it appear as though the helicopter is closer to the ice than is actually the case.

I know it looks like the vertol is seconds before impact but this was an actual planned out job.
Its during break up in the Bearing Sea where the ice road is out but the bardges cant get through the ice yet. Its Columbia Helicopters crew, apparently very precisely calculated.
