University of Virginia life flight helicopter, known as Pegasus, waits on the rooftop hospital helipad while the medical crew escorts the patient into the emergency room over 10 stories below. As I was waiting on the helipad for the medical crew to return, I noticed how the green glow from the helipad lights illuminated the rotor blades and created a mood that contrasted with the warm light of the clouds reflecting the terrestrial illumination of Charlottesville VA. Originally I had planned to take a photo that captured the perspective of the crane towering over the helicopter and on this dreary night the lighting came together to set the mood of the scene.
