Great capture! Full frame and in good focus - not an easy thing to do!

Lucky or not it's a good shot, not sure if the tree helps it though but as Evo said you've done well to get it full frame.

Nicely captured image, helicopters - notoriously difficult to get right, waht with rotor blades whiring around, think you managed to get it just about right

Very nice shot and I think the tree helps, I have several shots of helicopters in the sky and they look bland, whereas I think the tree gives it a sense of location and place.

I agree about the tree to me it shows movement of the helicopter

The other thing worth mentioning is you could do some levels adjustment on the image, it has quite a space on the whilte end and adjusting that would lift the shot a lot.
