Photo of the Week - Week 24

This entry - patriotic pictures! We recently had the opportunity to be in a small-town Fourth of July parade. My goal with these photos was to make some images that captured the feeling of the day - small-town patriotism.

The American flag is an obvious necessary accessory. Since this parade was in a small town in the West, the cowboy hats and red bandana also helped to set the scene.

In this second image, I like the symmetry with the two flag portions - the upper left corner and lower right corner.
