Helicopter photos

I can't turn down a request from my favorite photojournalist, so here are some photos from my helicopter ride to Baquba. The quality isn't great -- the combination of a point-and-shoot camera, a fast-moving helicopter, a fairly restrictive seatbelt and a non-photojournalist shooting -- but they're kind of fun to look at. There are also photos of me in my helmet and body armor, which I will not post here but will put on Facebook (and e-mail to my mother, who is banned from creating a Facebook profile).

Actually, the photo layout options in Blogger are terrible for multiple photos, so just go here.

Wow, Iraq's certainly a barren desert. Still awesome you got to go in a helicopter. I think your photography is great!
