Awesome!!! I had this same idea, but obviously didn't follow through. The only thing I can pick at is that the flag is tattered at the edges. Tsk Tsk!! But I love the folds in the flag, the tint of green you've chosen, just love it!!
Photograph meets the Challenge; Visual impact is great. Focus is good; Shows good idea and originality; Colour of photograph is good.
Is this the new Irish Flag?
Moderate impact shot for me. The background looks desaturated, and I am not crazy about that, I think a blue sky background would have had more impact.
