The Colors That Do Not Run - Day 1 Color

I thought I might give the monthly challenge a try this time around, this being my first entry. The great American flag, what better way to display color, and then a little editing.

[Pam Hawkes]

Great capture and interesting edit. Looks great.

[Lynda Parker]

When I first saw this one, I thought you had accidentally repeated a photo, however when I looked back into your calendar, I saw 'Old Glory' and realised you hadn't... both photos look very similar.

I love the colours you've used on this one around the edges (now I've looked at the other one and found it was very different).

[Rick Schies]

@mozette Yes, but they are all related LOL

[Terry]

Nice job of editing on this

[Allison Williams]

I really like the way this one turned out with the framing!
