When people ask us for tips on how to take photos out of a helicopter, one thing we always push is to shoot in burst mode. This might be obvious to more wildlife or sports photographers, but to most, it isn't but can make or break the type of images you get on a flight…

A Week In Las Vegas With FlyNYON!
I've flown over New York City a million times and it never seems to get old. I often think of other cities it would be cool to fly around in an open door helicopter and it always seems hard to top NYC. New York is so vast, there's always something new to see. However, it was refreshing to finally see a new perspective on a city I've visited a few times already...

Photo Of The Week 61 - High Roller In Sin City - Las Vegas, Nevada
I spent a longggg week in Las Vegas with FlyNYON to gather as much content as possible and to take over the Life Is Beautiful Festival. During this trip, I took many, many open door helicopter flights around the city and dessert. I honestly didn't think I would be too impressed but It was refreshing and exciting to get this perspective on a new city since I'm so used to New York...

Photo Of The Week 60 - High Altitude NYC - New York City, New York
I've flown in helicopters many times above NYC, usually around the 1,000 to 1,500ft altitude, but I was lucky enough to be taken to another level the other day. On August 26th of this year, FlyNYON will be hosting 2 high altitude flights to experience an open door helicopter ride 7,500ft above New York City!

Photo Of The Week 55 - Adding Perspective To Your Photos - New York City
When flying with FlyNYON, it's relatively easy to get yourself great photos of one of the best cities in the world. It's easy to just snap around at whatever you're looking at which is mainly the breathtaking views of the New York City skyline from above. These photos typically WOW people and are unique to add to your portfolio or Instagram profile, but they usually lack the perspective aspect of this type of photography...

Photo Of The Week 46 - Bridging The Gap - New York, New York
There is obviously a TON of amazing cityscapes to see from the sky and most of them give you a different perspective on every day things. Seeing skyscrapers from above is one thing but seeing bridges and rivers is another. For whatever reason, you really get a sense of scale with these things over the typical jaw dropping Freedom Tower and Empire State Building...

Photo Of The Week 43 - Blue Hour Freedom Tower - New York, New York
I keep getting these purple tones from these Freedom Tower photos. I posted an older image a few weeks ago that was similar in tone and this quickly reminded me of that. We just missed the sunset on this flight so we caught the cityscape just in time for blue hour. Blue hour is easily one of the best times for a FlyNYON flight because even though you don't get the nice warm glow of the sunset, you have the dark ambient light balanced out by all the twinkling city lights turning on bellow. It's really something that's truly unique to any photo experience...

Last week I took a trip to Arizona for a weekend trip in Lake Havasu City, Arizona. There were many things that impressed me about this small city and most of it were things that weren't even in the city itself...
