Hi all. we are less then a day away from the open ceremony and i am sure many fellow toggers will be experiencing this event in one form or the other!

So if you are one of those toggers who have experience the Olympics in some shape or form and took some snap shots, this is the place to post them :)

I myself did not get any Olympic tickets but i will visit the Olympic park. i have also attended one of the Olympic torch relay this morning which was cool.

here is my pics:

My wife took this yesterday in London, it's a big crop from a point and shoot, but it now has pride of place on our desktop as she liked it so much :D

I like the way it captures the atmosphere, and the torch is visible but the carrier isn't.

Fast forward six years, and in June this year, a set of Olympic rings were installed on Tower Bridge. They can be raised and lowered to allow ships to pass through the bridge.
