Photos from the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics Opening Ceremony

The Big Picture blog by Alan Taylor at Boston.com has an excellent gallery of (huge!) photographs from the (4-hour long!) opening ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics.

This one to the left is taken by Vladimir Rys/Bongarts/Getty Images.

For the last few months, my boyfriend and I have been waiting for the opening ceremony. We figured China was going to go all out. We were not disappointed. Best. Opening. Ceremony. Ever.
