Probably, the Chelyuskinites were greeted no less vigorously, but the outright joy that reigned today on the streets of London, where the parade of British Olympians took place, was amazing in its sincerity. It really felt like a victory parade.
Everyone is waiting...
It's good that it's not raining.
There is no one there yet, but the children are already happy.
Paparazzi in a suit.
While no one was there, the guys decided to amuse the audience. The police actually did not strictly enforce the barriers.
Front row seats.
And this is a glass box.
The appearance of the police caused a stir. Police officers ride along the spectators with outstretched palms and greet the crowd.
Palms...
The police are with the people.
Following the motorcycles, cavalry appeared.
Finally the first long-awaited car with Olympians.
Britain is the country where postage stamps appeared. It's no surprise that the winners are also captured in this format, naturally with the queen's silhouette in the corner.
Paralympians.
One of the main British heroes of the Olympics, who made the whole country cry.
The British are rejoicing.
Mark with Jeska Ennis. True, she herself is not visible. Maybe on the other side? :)
There are simply no words here. It is surprising, of course, that today technology makes it possible to create such prostheses.
And now for the photographer.
The inhabitants of the house in the background are very lucky.
One gold and two silver :)
Same set.
Conducting the public.
They can see everything very well.
The bronze medal winner blinks away tears.
But you can't hide your feelings. Actually, why...
Another British gold.
Just good British guys.
Message to the public: “You made these games.”
But the column does not end.
Colorful comrades.
I think it's hard for her... :)
Not only the spectators look at the Olympians, but vice versa. And the bronze winner is clearly sending someone a text message.
The power of nonverbal communication.
Bronze!
Hundreds of thousands of photos from all angles.
The cavalry brings up the rear...
...and a large group of Olympic volunteers.
They are also the heroes of this Olympics.
Variety of ages and hairstyles.
And light bulbs on hats!
The heroes leave... but the audience remains.
And the London sky above.
