Description
FEATURED ON THE HOMEPAGE OF FINE ART AMERICA
The Star-Spangled Banner and the Texas flag, official flags of the United States of America and the State of Texas respectively. Unfurled, they wave in the breeze on a tall flagpole surrounded by trees in this black-and-white photograph captured in a rural part of Texas. Oak tress and a moody sky fill the background, where the flags are seen clearly against the sky.
A vivid BW filter was used to capture this look, which emphasizes the far-left and corner symbols on the flags. Both flags feature stars--the US flag contains 50 stars, one representing each state, and the Texas flag features one bold star, the symbol of Texas, known as The Lone Star State.
This image is also available in color in my Texas and Rural Galleries, among others..

Calvin, thank you very much for this homepage feature in a Tree or Trees in Black and White!
Calvin Boyer
In addition to the banner, I am adding this more permanent recognition of its FEATURE on the homepage of A TREE OR TREES IN BLACK AND WHITE. I try mightily to feature only images that would be at home in a juried competition. No doubt that this image fits that bill. CONGRATULATIONS! And consider adding your image to DISCUSSIONS "Please post your featured photograph here" for greater, long-lasting visibility.
