A fine photograph just as it is. If anything, I would look at leaving out the clouds on top. Thank you for sharing.

perfect shot as is, nothing has to change, wish I could take one like that.
1st Cav 65-66. many hours in a Huey as a passenger, still get a chill when I hear one.

Beautiful shot; great composition. Only improvement is a natural for Photoshop. Addition of movement to Rotors via softened duplication/rotation of blades and adding them to photograph to show how a metal object remains airborne.
UHH had a really good discussion on photographing vintage aircraft last year that even suggested shutter speeds to show prop movement while keeping the aircraft clear, BUT using a higher shutter speed and "perfecting" the photograph later is equally effective. I would certainly use your high shutter speed since you were also airborne. Boris
