Choppers

A convoy went through town today and accompanying them was ten helicoptors. There is nine in this shot. It was a political protest but since I never discuss politics... 'nuff said. It was pretty neat to see all the choppers though.

Very cool capture. It almost looks like mosquitoes in formation.

[Jennifer C]

wow, what a scene! great capture!

[Jason Daniels]

Bob Katter? What the?

[Sheralee S]

@bobfoto It was the convoy headed to Canberra to protest the carbon tax.

[Jason Daniels]

@bella_ss - from Charlies Trousers? That's a fair drive, they going through Roma?

[Sheralee S]

@bobfoto I know I should know this but I have no idea, lol. I thought they came from Cairns way. But apparently they're heading to Canberra from all over Australia and will arrive there at the same time... again I don't know when. If I was @canberrabec I would get out of there now ;-)

[Krista]

Wow...crazy!

[Toni :)]

wow, nice capture Sheralee :)

[Sheralee S]

@tkeen You best get out while you can too Toni ;-)

[Toni :)]

lol Sheralee, nah bring it on, will be waiting for them when they get here, were there many vehicles in the convoy?

[Sheralee S]

@tkeen Apparently, but I didn't see them only the choppers.

[Zoe Ferrie]

[Kerri]

[Carole Imes]

[Nat Stuart Perks]

Great timing on this shot!

[robinwarner]

thanks for letting us know..and i never discuss politics either...but people love to, huh?

[Howard Steele]

Makes for an interesting shot

[lorihiro]

Wow, you got your camera out very quickly to snap this shot! Nice capture! Hope they protest without violence and drama!

[Kd Wallis]

wowsa! that is quite the convoy!! i have never seen more then one heli in the sky at any given time, haha, so this is a kewl shot!

[Geertje K.]

That really is a lot of choppers together! Really neat capture of them!

[Jason Daniels]

@bella_ss - Ahhhh, so the choppers are not hired snipers protecting someone in the convoy... these guys are station-owners flying their choppers as part of the protest?

[Anne ❀]

very interesting capture, quick draw mcgraw with your camera!!!!

[Sheralee S]

@bobfoto Lol to the snipers! I think you've got it right.

@lorihiro Yes, it's a peaceful protest I believe Lori. I guess it will be quite a sight when the estimated thousands of vehicles converge on our country's capital.

[Kass]

Very cool to see that much action! But keep it there, Toronto has enough demonstrations. ;-)

[e.gad]

Wow! Such a cool shot.

[Ken Lemieux]

9 choppers in one pohoto! Wow!!!!

[Rach_who]

Definitely not something you see everyday.

[alia_801]

Very cool shot! Can't say I've ever seen a swarm of helicopters before!

[Mhel]

Great catch here!

[Megan Richardson]

how wonderful to see the mass of choppers flying, regardless of the reasons, I love the way the light is striking them

[Charli]

Ahhh, the carbon tax protest by any chance? My Auntie works for a senator and got caught in the truck convoy while she was visiting canberra this week!
