I've never skiied before, but I watched the men's downhill a few days ago,
and it all looks pretty straightforward really - stand on slope, bend
knees,
let gravity take its course...<g>
Make sure you stay @ a Holiday Inn Express.... <VBG>

Thanks to everybody who helped out with the skiing questions a few weeks
ago. I leave tomorrow for about 9 days in Val d'Allos and will unsubscribe
later this evening until I get back.

I couldn't make up my mind, so I am over-equipped, photographically. I
have
decided to take 1 SLR with a 20mm, 28-80 and 80-200 lenses, and 2
rangefinders with 35, 50 and 90mm lenses. I will shoot colour with the SLR
and b&w with the other. I will at least have the choice of what to use
when
I get there - if I use anything at all. I'll let you know when I get back.

Plastic bags are OK if you seal them outdoors, and let the
camera warm up inside.
