This is the Bird's Nest - the Olympic Stadium in Beijing,. This was only two months after the games of 2008, and the tourists (such as myself) were thronging around the site. I think the stark features of this stadium made it a good candidate for black and white conversion.
This is the Bird's Nest, Olympic Stadium, Beijing. Only two months earlier, Usain Bolt had taken control of the games' 100 meter sprint. I remembered watching on TV, so it was fantastic to actually get to stand there just a short time later. 2008.
Another view of the stark features of the framework of the Bird's Nest: the Beijing Olympic Stadium. I wonder how this stadium will stand the test of time; it seemed truly remarkable in 2008. Really hope that it does endure.
