 Camera was hand held, no tripod used. Sport mode on the camera. Taken about 4:30, just as the sun was going down and hiding behind the clouds. Used NeatImage, adjusted contrast & levels in PS Elements (V2) and cropped to a 1:1 ratio. OMS stands for Oulette Machinery Systems - My Dad works there and I took this while I waiting for him to get off work.

The background is brighter than the subject. My eyes go straight to the blue sky instead of the flag.

Definitely depicts the wind, but the soft focus and low light are too distracting. 4.
