The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police frequently fly along the many boulevards in the city and are a common sound along with the private and business choppers around here. Today, these great officers seemed to be following their fellow officers on the ground down a different road, not the usual roads I hear them on.
Anyway, I heard this Metro chopper while indoors, ran and grabbed the Nikon in the kitchen which had a 70-300mm zoom on it and grabbed these photos. I tried to process and sequence them far to near.
Wow! Any closer and we could have seen the Pilot wave.
Thanks! I had the zoom lens on the Nikon, the photos were surprisingly clear to me too!
I often see helicopters! I think they’re so cool. We get them circling a lot round here, but I’m used to it now lol.

Are they police choppers? Maybe business-owned choppers. I’ve rode in just one years ago, scared the crap outta me!
Your photos are great John. I always feel unnerved when the helicopters start like that….
Thank you Sylvia! They don’t bother me except the noise.
Never a dull moment in Vegas City! lololol Great Photos John! 🙂
Thank you Diann! I was surprised actually that they are so clean. This place never sleeps as you well know… The only thing I dislike about Vegas is the damned traffic!
