The pillars of the Olympic cauldron are even more beautiful by night than by day. The arms appear to be lit from within and the contrast of blue and yellow light is impressive. In this shot the Olympic rings in the harbor can just be see at the base of the legs. The authorities have now moved the fence closer, have cut out sections of the fence and replaced them with plexiglass panels and have opened the viewing deck to visitors making it much easier to take pictures of the cauldron.

Since everyone is thinking about the London Olympics which begin tomorrow, I thought I'd post an older pictures from the only Olympics I ever attended. It would be nice to be in London and be part of the excitement, but since that is impossible, memories of the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver will have to do. This is the torch from those Olympics with the rings (on a barge in the harbor) in the background.
