"Our country is not the only thing to which we owe our allegiance. It is also owed to justice and to humanity. Patriotism consists not in waving the flag, but in striving that our country shall be righteous as well as strong."

This is really a great photo! Can I ask, for curiousity's sake, just how many shots you had to take to get this one of the perfect furl? =)

This is a fantastic shot of the flag. I must say it's my favorite one so far. I love how it is curling in the wind with bright blue sky showing. Great crop. Nice job Matt.

Love the shot of this flag. Puts a lump in my throat.

Great shot Matt! re: the bird shot...I think we may have 3 different nests in our house. Someone said we should clean them up immediately because rats can get in and they love to eat baby birdie eggs...I personally want to wait until all have left their nests...then we'll take care of it.

I love that you didn't have much time but still took 120 shots! =) Actually, that makes me feel better about taking zillions of shots of something in the hopes that something turns out. You've got great talent which definitely increases your odds. Keep 'em coming!
