[edit] Salt Lake 2002 Olympic Cauldron Park

The Cauldron used for the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah was moved from the top of the Olympic stadium and now anchors the Salt Lake 2002 Olympic Cauldron Park just south of Rice-Eccles Stadium. The flame is lit on special occasions, such as the opening weekend of the 2006 Winter Olympics.

Another Utah-related photo to consider.

This is a nice sunset-lit photo of the 2002 Winter Olympics's cauldron in its current setting, the Salt Lake 2002 Olympic Cauldron Park, just south of the stadium used for Opening and Closing ceremonies, Rice-Eccles Stadium.

It shows the flame lit (for the opening weekend of the Turin games this past February - usually it's not lit), the 2002 Olympic logo and slogan (on the back of the stadium scoreboard, facing the park) and a portion of the bleacher seating and press-box area of the stadium.

I took this photo, it's in the Salt Lake 2002 Olympic Cauldron Park and Rice-Eccles Stadium articles.

My only concern is the tilting - subjects on either side point toward the middle, but I guess that's what happens when pointing up to shoot a subject.
