Re: Fun with the Sony A7 Series Cameras( all of them)
We are back from Paris in our house in Normandy. We were trapped right in the middle of this terrible disaster. We had a meal in a restaurant, where we could have been a target as well, and were walking back to our adress in Paris as the shooting started very near us. We immediatly ren into an open door with 12 other people.
No way you could stay in the streets. We have been hiding for three hours in the stairhouse and heard the firing and explosions. Looking in the street we saw dead bodys and firemen taking care of wounded people. Sirenes all over the place. We were less then 100 meters from the theatre Bataclan were the terrorists started shooting like madmen and the suiciders blew themselves killing lots of people with them. Ironicly the USA band playing in the theatre is called The eagles of death.
Our hosts nearby were very worried were we were and were still up and waiting for us because I could not call them because I forgot my phone. Our friend was crying this morning. Paris is mourning and devestated. We are glad we could save ourselves and thank the French people who let us in to shelter. After three ours we could go to our adres by the backalley.
I did take one photo from a streetscene very close to the theatre Bataclan as I did not want to photograph anymore. It is not very good.
Very sad and I wish the Parisiens lots of courage.
