Old Glory


After a rainy afternoon, the sun broke through the clouds as it sunk toward the horizon and in the process, shone a spotlight on the American flag that flies near my home. Though this would make a perfect Independence Day shot, I couldn't wait another 10 months to use it, so I hope you'll forgive me for a patriotic shot out of "season," though I post this with the disclaimer that patriotism should be a year-round thing, not just felt and celebrated in July. While I'm not always proud to claim I'm American (there are a lot of people in my country who do really stupid things), generally speaking, I really am glad I live here. Where do you live, and why are you glad to live there?
