Just a quick post with some links to share of images from the Olympics..
This is particularly cool – it’s been shown on the NBC broadcasts a number of times, but in case you missed it (or if you want to check it out directly) – it’s a frame by frame sequence of Michael Phelps 1/100th of a second victory in the 100 meter butterfly – by Sports Illustrated’s legendary Heinz Kluetmeier from an underwater remote camera looking straight up at the finish.. amazing.
Additionally, Sports Illustrated has an extended online photo gallery of the games – here
A very nice frame from the Laoshan velodrome, by Mike Powell, is Newsweek’s Picture of the Day – here.
If you like that one, look for the photo also from the velodrome, by Nick Laham of Getty Images from a couple of days ago – it is in this gallery of wonderful pictures from Stern Magazine – please note, some of these images are a bit graphic or risque and may not be “Safe for Work” viewing.. here.
Chicago Tribune staffer Scott Strazzante shares the experience of the 2008 Summer Games.. here.
Hope you will enjoys these -

PS – If anybody reads this that knows how trackbacks work, I’d appreciate any help you are willing to provide – I’ve had them work and had them not work.. I’d like to know how to make them work. Thanks!
