Olympic Hockey Semi-Final

Leaving to the Olympic park early to enjoy the atmosphere, we had no idea what was to be on display hours later. An orange onslaught of epic proportions. A structural yet beautiful dismantling of a nations hopes and dreams and a complete demolition of the host nation.
It all started with a beautifully sunny morning...
