Nice shot Helen and really great composition. I like the way the repeating red and white stripes line up so well (I'm sure that took some patience) and the way the trees help to balance the image. Very nice indeed!
Helen, I can imagine this taking awhile to capture "just right", but it looks like you found your moment. I like your perspective looking down the row of flags here...nice color contrast with the drab-colored buildings. Nice photo! MFC
