Update: So I'm pretty new to still and honestly the thought of uploading images to another site/page is a struggle but I'll try and lace the uploads with little tips and hopefully that gives you a reason to follow along here.
Now the below photo is heavily edited in lightroom i'll put the before shot at the end so you can see. Obviously shooting a city scape with the light behind is challenging but add the fast moving helicopter to the mix it.
The rule of thumb for shooting while moving is roughly double your "zoom" or focal length so shooting on a 24 mm you don't want to go slower than 1/50th and on a 200mm idealy 1/400th shutter, but when your in a helicopter this changes and you need to keep your shutter faster. So for this I tried to keep my shutter speed fast, my lens wide open and went higher than I would normally like on the iso and just exposed for the highlights knowing I could recover the shadows in post.
Summary: The helicopter moving means you need to watch your shutter speed. keep it fast as you can. Know your camera and raw files before flying how far can you push your raw files? turn on the histogram or zebra lines so you know your highlights are safe.
So here is the image after I thrashed it though lightroom
Here is the before:

If you have any questions feel free to ask.
Thanks as always Rob
