The New World

Observation:
yellow repeating background
two blue figures on stilts
well balanced ppl on stilts
girls in background boys in front

The purpose of this picture, and of the Beijing Olympics, is to show China's future. The yellow background of girls in traditional Chinease dress show China's cultural past. The blue, stilted figures show the future: China is leaping into the modern world faster than anyone else. The balance the two men have shows how carefull China is being in its endeavors. The yellow may represent a stagnant, infected country; the blue washes over it like cool medicine. It is also important to note simply how grandiose and extravegant the ceremony is. China put on a great show, and I definitely think it made the World notice.
