Rio de Janeiro including Maracanã Stadium illuminated at night, Brazil
Many photographs of Rio de Janeiro include landmarks such as Sugarloaf Mountain, or the nearly 100-foot-tall statue, Cristo Redentor, that overlooks the city from Corcovado, the peak opposite Sugarloaf. This twilight shot of Rio shows the city bathed in blue light, and makes the bustling urban titan seem a little quieter, even placid. Of course, with the Summer Games going on, even at this distance, you might be able to hear the crowds cheering on athletes from around the world.
