T he Paris Summer Olympic Games are in full swing, with thousands of athletes from around the world competing for a spot on the podium.
The games, which officially began on Friday July 26, have already spawned unforgettable moments, from Celine Dion’s rousing performance at the Opening Ceremony —her first since revealing her diagnosis with Stiff-Person Syndrome—to Team USA’s Stephen Nedoroscik leading the men’s gymnastics to their first medal in 16 years with his pommel horse routine, and becoming a national hero in the process.
Photographers documenting the Paris Olympics have created indelible images, from action shots of BMX to kayaking to table tennis. Here are some of the best photos from the Summer Olympics:
