In contrast to photographs of the 1970 World’s Fair — a.k.a. Expo ‘70, Boston’s The Big Picture has a series of photos on the preparation for the 2010 World Expo in Shanghai.
In this photo taken Sunday, Feb. 21, 2010, a man labors in front of the Seed Cathedral, formed by thousands of slender acrylic rods - the centerpiece of the UK Pavilion, at the Shanghai World Expo site in Shanghai, China. The expo starts May 1 and runs for six months. It is expected to draw 70 million visitors. (AP Photo)
