On September 27th, 2008, Trooper 2 responded to Waldorf, Maryland to assist the Waldorf Volunteer Fire Department with a motor vehicle crash. Working alongside first responders, two patients were identified for transport. A second medical provider would be required to assist with patient care in the helicopter.
Trooper 2 encountered poor weather while attempting to deliver the patients to a trauma center, and diverted to the closest airport. The helicopter crashed in Walker Mill Park on approach to Andrews Air Force Base.
The flight crew, one patient, Ashley Younger, and the Waldorf VFD medical provider, Tonya Mallard, were killed in the crash. One patient, Jordan Wells, survived the crash and was located, treated, and transported by rescuers.
Ingólfshöfði is a nature reserve that's home to thousands of nesting sea-birds, like puffins and great skuas. This birdwatching tour was taken with the group Local Guide, which hauls people across a massive black sand beach in a hay cart to reach the cliffs where the birds live.
Photographer in a Icecave in Vatnajokull glacier
When I shot these photos I was guiding a tour for Isafold travel ( www.isafoldtravel.is ) with Debbie and Reuben Sloan. There is local guide ( www.localguide.is ) that specialises in these icecaves.
First glimpse of the glacier for our tour group - the ice only appears blue in the winter, in the summer the surface ice gets porous and gives a white appearance.
Dukar, our local and fantastic guide!
