Some folks have an eye for photography. They don't just take pictures; they create art via a camera lens. My friend and occasional flying partner Eugene Chua is a guy blessed with such an eye. He's also a damn fine pilot, and a fun guy to have around the workplace.
So, he's a talented photographer, a damn fine pilot, and a fun guy to boot. Eugene obviously has more than his fair share of attributes, and that's starting to irritate the heck out of me.
The photos above are taken in a Sikorsky S-76C++. It carries two pilots, up to twelve passengers, and cruises at up to 170 miles per hour. It's the mainstay of PHI's offshore fleet.
You should really check out more of Eugene's photography on his website.

Wow! He has some really impressive photos on his site.
Thanks for sharing his work with us. Don't worry.... we still think you're a pretty great all-around guy, too!
I agree with Kelly. You're no slouch!
I'll check out the website.
Great shots, Hal, and love the job you do - I spent some (little) time in choppers during my Defence Force days, mostly Iriquois, but with a smattering of Chinook and Squirrel - I miss winching 'practice' where they would tea-bag us at several very wet and very smelly places...
The rainy nighttime one is really cool!
Cool is right!

One of the great things about you, Hal, is that you are one of the few people I know that are content with their lot in life. You love your job, your co-workers, your family, your life. The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. You are not them, that's why I enjoy the heck out of your blog.
LOL! You're too kind my friend. So glad everyone is enjoying the pics! Thanks for all the encouragement.
