Presumably a dig at the ongoing sporting event that can only be mentioned in name by corporate sponsors. Likewise London and 2012 are only to be officially used by those that have paid for the privilege. Attendees wearing shoes that aren't Adidas branded probably won't be asked to go barefoot into the stadium. Nobody is welcome if arriving in an Audi, however.

The picture doesn't look like digital image at all. More like an aquarelle painting.
