Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics
I love watching the Olympics on TV! It is awesome to know that you are currently watching the best in the entire world trying the best they ever have! It is where dreams are made and the happiness and joy on the face of the athletes is irreplaceable.
At the same time, Winter Olympics has always fascinated me even more! It is brilliant to watch so many speed based events on a blanket of snow or ice. It is truly a spectacle. And boy does it make for some of the best photographs. By now most of you would have realised that I am an ardent fan and follower of the pictures that The Boston Globe collects and puts up on The Big Picture section. A few pictures from their latest set are below. It is absolutely worth a visit to watch all 45 of them here.

Happy Year of the Tiger
It is the Year of the Tiger and these pictures are of the celebrations in China. Environmentalists think this is the perfect year to get some attention to the problem of reducing number of tigers in the wild around the world.

Audi trying to 'Break the Spell'
via youtube.com
This is one of the most well made car commercials I have seen in recent times. I love the way it is attacking all the marquee and established manufacturers at the same time. This ad is made for the US market where Audi appears to be the underdog; and everyone loves the underdog.
Audi is trying to position itself as the rebel which offers all the choices that their competitors are offering under one brand and without the stereotype. It basically is telling people that you are doing nothing but conforming to stereotypes if you drive the other cars; and this would reflect directly in the statement you are trying to make about yourself. As I said in my last post, it is all about making a statement.
This commercial is an excellent example of how one can throw an open challenge to the established players in a cluttered market and try to change the thinking of the consumers to force them to choose your brand.
Finally, I love the way the R8 pulls up in the street for the kid to drool at. I just wish it was not silver! ;)
