Been away for 10 days but could keep the paw pace so far.

Week 7 is from the Lucerne carnival. Shot at noon where the people 
are not that drunken yet.

Week 8 is from my holidays in the Avers valley, a helicoptre air 
rescue action in the night. While we were night skiing and eating 
raclette in a heatened tent, the swiss REGA (air rescuers) brought in 
snowboard tourists who got stuck in a rock face in the afternoon. As 
the guys had no alarm system with and there was no telecom network in 
this remote area, they were lucky that their hotel owner called the 
rescuers after they did not come in for the evening meal. Thanks to 
infrared search instruments they were found in a short time.

R-D1s, 35/1.4 Summilux asph, @ f1.4, ISO 800
My challenge was not to get the lens full of the snow blown by the 
helicoptre rotors, and to shoot handheld at a 1/12th second.

Comments welcome as always,
Didier
