@clmiller Thanks so much, Caren! I was uninspired when I went outside. Took the camera "just because". I took a few photos while I was out, here and there, nothing special. Then I saw the sun glinting off the knob of the flag pole and I played around a little. The breeze was so little, I had to wait. While it isn't perfect, it is close to what I was looking for. I'm glad it worked for you!

She is a beautiful thing to see on display! I'm going to have to replace my flag too. There is a tree close to our flag pole which normally isn't a problem. But when the leaves fall off sometimes the flag will catch on the branches even though I keep trimming them. I am glad to see that you fly your flag!

You don't by any chance work in the Aventura, FL area do you?

@drewhuy Thank you, Drew!

@skipt07 Yes, have flown the flag always. :-) Aventura is not "my area". I have, though, recently sold a property as far away as Miami Beach. Currently doing some research on a St. Augustine house. I am flexible. Depends upon the situation.

@danette - A friend of mine is relocating to Aventura and she is flying down on Monday apartment hunting

@skipt07 Aventura is quite an area. If she wants to talk to me to see if I can help her, she can email me at thompsondm at bellsouth.net.

Love this Shot Danette ... The Sun Burst is Very Fitting ... A " Soldier's " Son ... A " Marine's " Pride ... I Brought My 3 Flags down during the Big Blow we had ... Will Raise them back tomorrow ... Peace to You My Friend ...

@danette Thanks you! I left it up to her. I'm not certain if her company will help her or not.

@lonewolfman Glad you enjoyed it, Wolfman! The flag is important to display. To me, this photo looks like someone is walking with it. Reminds me of the saying "These colors don't run." Peace back to you!

Great capture! Love the sun :)
