This year was the summer of London 2012. The events leading up to the launch of the Olympics were in full swing and we were lucky enough to have the Olympic Torch Relay pass just down the road from us. I managed to grab a few shots as the Relay Runner passed by, but I was surprised by how quickly the circus moved past, one minute they were there, they next they were gone.

It was more impressive to see the local community turn out in force. The atmosphere was great and everyone looked like they were having a great time. I wonder how long it will be before we get the Olympics here in Birmingham?
