There is a pine forest on the coast about 30 miles from where I live.

Taken on E500 - not sure what lens, probably the long zoom. Cropped slightly...
This air ambulance landed on the playing field in the village of Betws y Coed on saturday 3rd June. The ground ambulance had collected a casualty from a motorcycle RTA and he was being flown out for prompt specialist intervention.
