This month I was fortunate enough to take to the skies over the Olympic Park. I was there with our photographer to capture all the recent changes and developments on the Park with our latest set of aerial photographs. 

The last time the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA) Filming team was airborne was back in June and the set of pictures that we returned with this time show just how much progress has been made on the Park.

From up in the air the Olympic Stadium already looks spectacular.  The steel seating supports on the south stand gives us an idea of just how large the Stadium will be when it is complete.  No matter where in the Park we were hovering, the Stadium was always clearly visible.

The Olympic Village is next to to the new Stratford City Shopping Centre, with Stratford International Station sitting in between the two.

At this time of the year the sun is never guaranteed and conditions can change rapidly. This picture was taken right at the end of the shoot just as we were escaping the buffeting winds over the Olympic Park. The last of the remaining light has burst through the clouds and picked out the City of London with the Olympic Stadium in the foreground.
