Day 217 - Old Glory

Since I was talking flags yesterday, I wanted to post another one of the US flag.  Actually, it started out with me looking for a Canadian flag to post, but I couldn't find one, I settled on finding another one of Old Glory. One of the nicer shots of the American flag, I captured. I realize that part of the flag is wrapped around the pole, but I still like it, especially against the blue sky.


Goal for flag day, take a nice shot of the Maple Leaf.... and that will be just in time for the Winter Games this year!

Day 216 - Moroccan Flag

I know I commented on September 27 about the ubiquity of American flags in the USA, well, the same is true of Morocco!  I am working on a project which has me going through my photos of the trip, and I was amused at the number of flag shots I have.  I guess, if you are Canadian, you only flag wave when you travel... or during the Olympics, of course!

Day 106 - Flags everywhere

Growing up, I used to hear people say that Canada is not a nation of flag wavers, and I really didn't understand what that mean.  Going to the States for the first time, it was so fascinating to see the number of American flags I saw everywhere - businesses, residences, and government buildings!

This was at Johns Hopkins University, again, a shot that I didn't take time to set up, and took as I was passing.  I wish I could have taken it straight on, to frame the flag better.
