That is a CH-47D Chinook, made by Boeing/Vertol. I just looked up the data for it and it is a 1964 model that was previously a military helicopter. The company that owns it is out of Billings, Montana. Looks like it was rebuilt to its current configuration.

Thank you, Gene! Interesting.

 

I agree.

 

Reminds me of the story about a dead frogman found high up in a tree in the middle of the forest. (a legend, not story really)

 

Surely something you don't see everyday...

From a photography perspective, you need to slow the shutter speed down. Helicopters with non-moving rotors... they fall out of the sky.

 

 

I was using my Google Pixel 3. No shutter control. I'm always impressed with its pictures though.

 

yes sharp and clear no doubt.

 

I especially love how awesome it is at night shots. You see things from the photos that you don't see with the naked eye.

Just out of curiosity, what is the reason and origin of having lawns on roofs? I think this photo was taken in Wales?

Thanks!
