I was not able to watch the 2008 Beijing Olympics Opening Ceremony but I found these amazing photos online and it is so beautiful. Enjoy! I read that the Americans were angered when NBC who has exclusive rights to broadcast the Olympics delayed the telecast 12 hours later. So for those who missed it, here are some glimpse of the photos to such a spectacular event!
