Rebecca Lawson being carried away by helicopter after her rescue from
|
|
|
|
|
Kaninchenhöhle in 1989. Owing to the amount of caving gear strewn
|
|
|
|
|
around, the chopper could not land close to the entrance, so Becka was
|
|
|
|
|
carried some distance, then lifted by cable and taken a bit further

|
away to a spot where a safe landing could be made.</p>

sun, is almost a silhouette; I've fiddled on for quite a while with contrast
|
|
|
|
|
curves to get this much detail out of it, but will have another go after all
