That F2 lens is doing a superb job.

I will not go as far as flying the flag upside down, I developed too much respect for it most likely from my military time when one of our duties as Unit Police was as a team of 3 to raise, retire and fold the US flag for the post every day rain or shine bitter or beautiful. Paul

Crisp shot, well composed.

Any blue is implied, LOL. That's the 135 mm f/2.0 doing its blurred background thing. I've seen some flags flown upside-down. Not sure how many people know what that means, though.

Red White and Blue. For years I flew a flag 24x7 until my flag pole saw its better days and then switched to flag holidays and every time I camped. Nowadays I refuse to fly a flag in protest and will resume flying again in late January 2029. Paul
