The Sublime

Remember when the Olympics were on? Weeeeeeeeee....that was fun. I've never cared so much about sports for which I thought I cared so little. Like track and field, swimming, and diving.

This is short snippet of a TV screen showing a woman diving. Most striking to me was the beauty of the camera motion: the way it tracks along with her body and the bars of the diving structure flash down. And then there is banal bar chatter in the background.

I can hardly wait for summer.
