Well on Thursday I was driving home from work and I saw the Super Scoopers coming out of SFD so I told my wife I was going to stop and take some pics of them getting water. Well here is one pic I took off my ipod. Everyone thinks I did not take this pic because it does not look real.

Cool photo I work close to there and they fly right over us all day. I could see them flying in the direction of SFD but thought is was to short to get water from wondered where they were getting it from. Now I know got any more photos?

Thanks I love the shot I took. I have video on my instgram of them coming in to get water don't know how to but video up here from my ipod. I do have a few more pics I can add. To bad I don't know how to add the video of them geting water because I have to video of them doing that.

Nice pic,they are amazing pilots.

Great pics I seen that at the pudd years ago. I bet fish get scooped up with the water too...Fried fish on the burning hill side.

Thanks. I have seen the helicopter get water in big bear lake. So this was my first time seeing the super scooper get water.

That 1st shot is just great! With the reflection and the late afternoon sunset, that is a magazine cover right there! Thanks for taking that pic and sharing it with us. It's not a thing you see very often.
