Pictures of the Week: May3-9

Be prepared. You never know when an unexpected moment may happen. I suspect that Canadian Press photographer Francis Vachon did not know in advance that Team Sweden forward Marcus Nilson would suffer such a dramatic fall on the ice as he was covering the IIHF world hockey championships, but he was prepared for it. His camera was focused on the action with the correct settings as he covered the event. This allowed him to follow the action on the ice and wait for a decisive moment. Recognizing just the right time to snap the shutter is what allows us to share this player's pain and to cause our eyes to linger a little longer on this photo.
 
Let your eyes linger over all of this week's best images in Pictures of the Week.
