For anyone who has never
been to the Olympics, it is hard to imagine the actual size
of the event: competitions take place simultneously in tens
arenas. You want to be everywhere but this is impossible and
some times a photojournalist has just a few minutes for shooting
an event before he has to rush to the other side of town where
other events are in progress, and then immediately on to the
Press Center to transmit images to the main office in Moscow.
This exhibition comprised 100 pictures selected by the authors
from thousands of frames shot during the Olympic Games on
Kodak film. The photographs had been printed at Kodak ProLab
Moscow on traditional photographic paper, ink-jet media and
on Kodak Professional Color Metallic Paper.
