Big Turban Art

I am much surprised my listed bloggers gang didn't blog anything about the 2010 Commonwealth Games in New Delhi. Wei, what happened to you guys? Unlike the Beijing Olympics, so many blogged photos and bragged all their hua-hua gifts and souvenirs. I was following closely at Legolas' Olympic series excitement earlier on and it was thrilling me to bits.

Nah, I had to google as I missed the TV broadcast the other day. I was amazed to see their way of designing & planning the whole event. I thought the photo below was funny and perhaps they were inspired from other borrowed sources. Well, art is free form and can be borrowed or copied to express them better. That's what my professor taught me in US college.





I thought they got the frills idea from Beijing's bird nest below.




On 2nd thought, I think they got the idea from below.

    Didn't read much about the games, except for the shabby job in preparing for these games. Hope everything went well finally.
