Home / ROTOR Magazine Photo Contest – Grand Prize ROTOR Magazine Photo Contest – Grand Prize In a year when we had to change so much, some things didn’t change at all. It turns out that ROTOR readers still like photos of helicopters, and so we ran the ninth annual ROTOR Magazine Photo Contest. All but one of our winning photos captured the drama that is part of aviation. You’ll see lives on the line, both literally and figuratively, and a gleaming aircraft set against a background of fire. You’ll also see one photographer’s memorable end to a perfect day. These striking shots reflecting both the work that we do and why we do that work have been selected as winners of HAI’s ninth annual ROTOR Magazine Photo Contest. The grand prize winner and five category winners will be showcased in the March 2021 issue of ROTOR. The 10th annual ROTOR Magazine Photo Contest will open on Aug. 2, 2021. Plan to submit your winning shots! Mark Mennie Calgary, Alberta, Canada Aviation photographer Mark Mennie took this year’s Grand Prize in the 2021 ROTOR Magazine Photo Contest. Mennie shot this photo under medical direction in April 2020 to illustrate the new standards for personal protective equipment (PPE) that had been recently implemented to safely transport critically ill patients with COVID-19. His photo reminds us of a grim year—but also to be proud of our everyday heroes.
