Before every take off of the launcher Ariane, some helicopter are clearing the area and patrolling to avoid any problem. This day there was a big bush fire in the nearby of Kourou. The blur of this picture is not very artistic but the light was fading very fast in the end of the day... But I liked the scene. Next time I will have better results ! ;) H.

Looks like a war scene from Vietnam ... would have been cool if Kerstin was in the chopper firing rounds at the villagers below.

@Aaron Schmidt: Well actually, I did not carried the music of the valikiries. But the scene of fire in the jungle was very similar to some images of Vietnam war.
