London 2012 Olympic Stadium

An Olympic Stadium with such a large removable element and mix of permanent and temporary seating has never been attempted before.

The Stadium is also the most sustainable ever built for an Olympic Games. The lower tier sits within a bowl in the ground, which minimises the use of construction materials. This bowl was created by excavating 800,000 tonnes of soil, the majority of which was cleaned and reused elsewhere on the Olympic Park.

Around 10,000 tonnes of steel were used to build the venue – significantly less than in other Olympic stadiums, making its construction more sustainable. The top ring of the Stadium was built using surplus gas pipes – a visual testament to London 2012's efforts to 'reduce, reuse and recycle'.
Construction began in May 2008 and was completed in just under three years, with the final piece of turf laid in March 2011.

The Olympic Stadium in Olympic Park in Stratford, London, England was the centrepiece of the 2012 London Olympics, the last stop in the 2012 Olympics torch relay, and the venue of the athletic events as well as the opening and closing ceremonies. It is the central venue of the 2012 London Paralympics. It is located at Marshgate Lane in London's Stratford district in the Lower Lea Valley. The stadium has a capacity of 80,000, making it the third-largest stadium in England behind Wembley Stadium and Twickenham Stadium. Land preparation for the stadium began in mid-2007, with the official construction start date on 22 May 2008, although piling works for the foundation unofficially began four weeks ahead of that date. The stadium will also host the 2017 World Championships in Athletics.

I am happy that I experienced the incredible atmosphere of the London 2012 Paralympic games inside the new Olympic Stadium. Very impressed with the enthusiastic crowd, the efficiency of the volunteers and the great effort and skills of the Paralympians. Many World Records broken...

This shot of the Anish Kapoor / Cecil Balmond designed Orbit at the London 2012 Olympic Park comes a close second to my favourite shot, shown below, what it lacks in dynamism I think it makes up for with originality. If I were taking it again I'd probably take a few steps back so that the structure was just slightly higher than the lampposts.

Flickr Olympic strings
Tags: london   patterns   strings   doodles   olympics   2012   tangles   zentangle   
I started this a while ago, wanting to do something to remember the Olympics by. I've used the "Tanglepatterns.com" strings Nos 5-9 and the colours of the five rings. I wanted to try and use patterns that gave a feel for some of the many sports and events that took place.
The "scoop" type design in the bottom left (yellow) corner is based on the petals that formed the top of the Olympic flame.
The "wheels" in the same corner are a tribute to Sir Chris Hoy and Bradley WIggins our most successful Olympians.
I'm a bit disappointed with the piece as it is, so might come back to it after my shoulder's sorted, but I wanted to post it tonight at the end of a fabulous two weeks. Love to all. xxx :@) Fi

The Olympic Stadium during London 2012. The Olympic Park was fantastic, really well designed and a magnificent location that delivered a superb games!

I haven't uploaded much recently, and that's going to continue - my finals start next week so unfortunately won't have much time to browse Flickr. If I'm largely inactive fot the next few weeks that'll be the reason, though I hope to be able to catch up on everything afterwards! Until then...

London 2012 Olympic Stadium

The Olympic Stadium will host the four spectacular Opening and Closing Ceremonies at London 2012, as well as some of the most iconic Games events.

The Stadium is at the heart of the Olympic Park on an ‘island’ site, surrounded by waterways on three sides. Spectators will reach the venue via five bridges that link the site to the surrounding area.

An Olympic Stadium with such a large removable element and mix of permanent and temporary seating has never been attempted before.

The Stadium is also the most sustainable ever built for an Olympic Games. The lower tier sits within a bowl in the ground, which minimises the use of construction materials. This bowl was created by excavating 800,000 tonnes of soil, the majority of which was cleaned and reused elsewhere on the Olympic Park.

Around 10,000 tonnes of steel were used to build the venue – significantly less than in other Olympic stadiums, making its construction more sustainable. The top ring of the Stadium was built using surplus gas pipes – a visual testament to London 2012's efforts to 'reduce, reuse and recycle'.

I was lucky to attend the dress rehearsal for the Opening Ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic games. I have been asked to keep the details secret. But I can say that its spectacular entertaining and very British. There will be moments when some non-Brits will scratch their heads.

London welcomes 204 Nations to the Olympic Games - but London already has 270 nationalities living and working in the city speaking a combined 300 different languages.

Its still pretty hard to take a picture of the main stadium without including a lot of bulldozers and work sites that are finishing off the grounds leading up to it.

The Vancouver Olympic Village (VVL), is an Olympic Village built for the 2010 Winter Olympics and 2010 Winter Paralympics hosted in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. A 600,000 sq ft (56,000 m2) village with over 600 units, that was able to accommodate over 2,800 athletes, coaches, and officials.

The site, a former industrial area which was previously mostly parking lot, is located on the shoreline at the southeast corner of False Creek, north of 2nd Avenue between Quebec and Manitoba Streets. Just south of Science World, its waterfront is part of the False Creek Seawall promenade and bike route, and is adjacent to the stations of the Granville Island Heritage Railway, the Spyglass Place pedestrian ferry wharf (served by Aquabus and False Creek Ferries), the Science World pedestrian ferry wharf (normally served by Aquabus and False Creek Ferries but closed temporarily from January 25, 2010 to March 24, 2010and the Main Street and Olympic Village SkyTrain stations.

The Whistler Olympic and Paralympic Village (WOPV) is located in Whistler, British Columbia and will also serve both the 2010 Winter Olympics and 2010 Winter Paralympics. Smaller than the VVL it will accommodate 2,400 athletes, coaches, and officials with 450 beds made especially with wheelchair access. Site preparation began in 2006 with construction starting in March 2007 and it was completed in the summer of 2009.

Those of you wondering what a place costs here. 600k gets you 750 SQ FT 2BR Apt.

Vancouver 2010's Olympic cityscape, as seen from North Vancouver looking across Burrard Inlet. From left to right, Canada Place, Vancouver Convention Centre (also the media centre for the Games), and the Olympic Couldron.

There was only about a 5 minute window when the ambient light from the sunset was just perfect. This allowed me to compose for a shot allowing me to capture city lights, couldron fire, and building details while keeping the entire photo within the dynamic range of my camera. I didn't want to use HDR, as I am not a fan of the technique. HDR software yields results that are too unnatural to my liking.

Shot with a 300mm prime on a pan & tilt head on tripod. Lightroom and stitched in Photoshop.

As raggedy13 points out below, this plywood wall of posters is from an art project by Jeremy Shaw in March last year. If you follow the notes you can see tthe legacy buildings from Expo '86 which are being used for the Vancouver 2010 Olympics: BC Place and Canada Place being the biggest. And I've added some notes to indicate where the new legacy buildings from Vancouver 2010 are.

Will the 2010 games be Expo '86 on steroids, as the commercial says? Was tangentially involved in Expo '86, and it certainly wasn't as Corporate and Closed-to-the-Public as the Vancouver 2010 games seem to be.

Update: OK, I was wrong. Expo '86 on steroids doesn't even begin to describe the party that the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Games generated. Sure, there were blocks of empty seats at venues belonging to various Corporations (which was really annoying) and there was a class system, but regular people had the best party and you wouldn't have wanted to be anywhere else than the streets of downtown Vancouver.

Update: The marshmallow roof of BC Place was officially deflated in early May 2010 to make way for a new retractable roof.

This continues into the new year, but not the nightly computer graphic displays of Sail Light Show or the red Christmas-tree display on Harbour Centre.

Did a quick photo walk of a quiet downtown Vancouver early on New Year's Eve to see what was happening ahead of the general debauchery. Met up with just a few hardy souls walking, running or cycling the seawall in the rain and wind.

I guess it signifies that it won't be long before the games begin.

This photo gives you an idea of the size of the main Olympic Green area for Beijing 2008. It was huge. Taken from the North of the green by the last tube station on the Olympic tube line (yes the games had its own tube line), facing South to the main Stadium

Oh, and the Games site itself carries on further North from here for about another km (behind me)

Who would have thought an Olympic runner walking down the mean streets of San Francisco would require the ENTIRE Police Department and a ginormous motorcade....

First the City announces the route the runner will travel on. The runner takes off from the original spot but then runs into a warehouse. Within minutes the runner is miles away in a separate district of the city and is announced that the course gets "changed". So all of a sudden, 10,000 protesters who have been camping out are now standing in the wrong spot and basically got screwed! ... Gavin Newsom's a Genius.

What you're seeing here are hundreds of cops, s.w.a.t. and what might possibly have been a gunship in the air unleashed to protect one set of athletes... Madness!

My mom took these photos, I was in a business meeting 40 miles away. Her firm works very closely with the Chinese Consulate and they were there to support the Olympics.

The Olympic torch relay in Paris has been cut short after protests by anti-China demonstrators. The flame had been extinguished several times by security forces after repeated clashes with pro-Tibet and human rights campaigners.

The sun was not that long risen and created some nice "glows" on the river and the resevoirs.

The pic was taken in Switzerland. This statue was made by a Hungarian artist . Do you see how interesting are these byciclist? There are three but their bycicles has only 5 wheels instead of 6. Why? Becasue their wheels create the 5 Olympic circles. The Olympic symbol represents the linking of five continents and meeting of athletes from all over the world at the Olympic Games.
