EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph captures the magnificent Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in all its glory during the iconic London Olympics of 2012. Damian Grady's lens beautifully frames this historic moment, showcasing the architectural marvels that make up this sporting haven. The image showcases three prominent structures - The Velodrome, Basketball Arena, and Olympic Village - standing tall against a backdrop of lush greenery. The Velodrome, with its sleek design and curved roof, symbolizes speed and elegance as it hosted thrilling cycling events during the Games. Adjacent to it stands the Basketball Arena, a colossal structure that witnessed intense matches between world-class athletes battling for gold. Completing this triumvirate is the Olympic Village; an embodiment of unity and camaraderie where athletes from across the globe resided during their quest for excellence. Grady's photograph was taken at just the right moment in September 2012 when anticipation filled the air and dreams were being realized on these hallowed grounds. It serves as a timeless reminder of how sport can bring nations together under one banner. As we gaze upon this print from Historic England, we are transported back to those exhilarating days when London played host to unforgettable moments etched forever in our collective memory. It encapsulates not only a celebration of athleticism but also pays homage to human determination and resilience – qualities that define both sportsmanship and history itself.
