I love the greenery and trees worked into the complex. This will make for a lot of good workspace views throughout the buildings and not just the executive wing.
SO the amount of fireworks broadcasted on TV was real? I thought some of em had to be digital so on TV it would look spectacular. Kinda like the Iran missile launch, and the Kim Jon Ill shadow. Speaking of the North Korean, my teacher for digital design just gave us a project to fix the bad photoshoping of Kim.
The fireworks in Beijing were real, but because of the pollution, some of them could not be seen (at least by the cameras in the helicopters) and were therefore edited back in.
@terebakashi: I thought they said the reason was to make sure ppl saw what was really happening, and no helicopter could fly along the path at that speed safely capturing the fireworks. But they were real, they just made a digital version earlier for international audiences, as they wouldnt have gotten the whole picture of what was really happening.
@Scazza: They wouldn't need to fly at exactly the same speed as the footprints were being launched. They could always start forward of the first footprint while shooting aft, and then end up behind the last footprint while shooting foreward. Problem is that at some point the footprint launches would have to pass the helicopter, and there's the very real possibility in there that something bad could happen. Especially if the helicopter was close enough to actually see the footprints and the terrain beneath them through the smogy haze.

I'll tell you what:

We need to be careful with our 50 eyesores.
