    OMG, look what I've started! .
    Sharp colors, well framed. I say we start a flag thread.

    Decent shot, but might be missing a punchline. I do like the colors - very nice.

    Good idea on the thread, but I think you will get better response around the 4th of July.

    I completely agree about the punchline. I love shooting the flag but I never get it quite right.

    Re: Another flag photo

    I was just there last year. I think they are one of the few places that fly the vintage flags. I recogonized the rigging and the flag. Your shot came out a lot nicer than mine. Thanks for posting.

    I think a FLAG thread would be great and not just the American Flag how cool would it be to see shots like these from around the world. Viewfinder would be a good place. Anybody else got any thoughts this.

    Thanks, that was the only keeper out of, I dunno, 50 or so shots of the thing. :mad2: The Flag is my photography nemesis.

    I may be able to scare up a few more shots for a flag thread. I'd love to see other flags as well.
