Originally taken just for the beauty of the flag against the sky I was frantically looking through my pics to enter something in this challenge and this stood out. Here we see "Old Glory" in all her splendor.
For those who fight for it, freedom has a taste the protected will never know.

I think you photographed this very VERY well. Makes me proud to be an American. You caught the reds and whites without blowing anything out. Very vibrant and I can almost feel the wind holding that flag aloft :)
My husband just returned from Iraq (yesterday 2nd tour). Thank you for your years of service.
haven't seen pictures of US flags in the challenges for a while and thought it had finally come to an end, but here we go again.
i'm not trying to get into a political debate here, as this is a photography site, but please i'm begging you, in favour of the challenges and the huge amount of multi-cultural people on this site, next time find something more appropriate and NON-political to represent glory in your photograph.
i'll restrain from voting on this image.
