Above Omaha 2015 - Flight #3 - December

I had a client from California call the other day and request an aerial photo flight. I told them that in Nebraska things are dead and brown this time of the year but the wanted the photos anyways. First time I have ever done Aerials in December but at least last week it really nice an warm, I am guessing the windchill in the helicopter would be a bit cold on a normal December day! I didn't shoot a bunch, but here are some that I caught on the way to the site and back. Also going to post a few more in the different update threads.

Here is a summary of all my Aerial Photo Shoots! 17 aerial photo flights over 9 years!

No I didn't, I spent most of that Saturday following Big Boy, so that took up most of my free time. I forget how many hours that move took, most of it being at the turn from 10th onto Bancroft.

That's too bad. I can't count how many times I have pulled up your BigBoy photos to show people.
