olympic crowds


i decided to get back into the main stream today. took a walk along the seawall, and ended up down by the rink. i found a nice spot out of the way, put the canon on a tripod, and spent an hour and a half shooting the crowds/ watching the light change. second shot from the same location - the athlete's village.

Very good feeling of being part of it all from your picture of the crowds-they are beginning to look tired out-no wonder!!The Athlete's village is different than I had thought but will make for good apartments when the Games are over. cw

no rough stuff. notice a aussie flag on the right/the one that caused a fuss before the games began.

As another person said the people do look tired. Its likely that now the liquor stores will close at 7pm they will get more sleep.

Great shot of the Athletes village. What are the chances of strolling to have a beer with the Canadians?

you go first i will bring the beer.....
