    Singapore's torch bearer and sailor Darren Choy runs toward the Youth Olympics Cauldron during the opening ceremony to mark the start of the inaugural Youth Olympic Games held in Singapore on Saturday, Aug. 14.

    Surreal start

    I am normally not a huge fan of pictures from ceremonies or performances since they are planned events and making a nice picture of a visually over-the-top show is sometimes like shooting fish in a barrel. That being said, this is still a pretty cool image.
