Photo of the Day (9.5.08)

Remember the Olympics? This photo from the Closing Ceremonies in the National Stadium was taken by pirano. Notice the dancers on the balls, seemingly suspended in mid-air. Will we ever see another Olympics with such an impressive Opening and Closing Ceremonies?

Start practicing your large-group dancing, Londoners.

The "balls" are actually big drums and the people attached to them (one each side of each drum) are the drummers.
