Description this was shot on the Hopi indian reservation. I wonder if the Indigenous people feel free, or even safe under that flag. I don't

f- is for fighting
r- is for red, ancestors blood in battles they shed
e- we elect them
e- we eject them, in the land of the free and home of the
brave
d- is for dying
o- is overture
m- is for money, and we know what that cures

thats an amazing photo, I insantly gasped once I saw that. I lvoe that horizon line, and that contrasted dark flag to make an amazing focal point. This is amazing, once again.

Thank you very much. I'm glad it reached you. That was a beautiful day out there and I don't think I will ever see another one like it

Caught yourself a fantastic image there. I like to see photos that make people think, on some deeper level then wow that flower is nice, or she has great legs.
Sometimes I think we concentrate too hard on ignoring what frightens us. On what we know should matter more.
Peace.

i feel your cynicism man. although the flag always makes me feel proud and patriotic, the direction our leadership is taking us is disturbing. and the more i think about it, the less i want to be here in the good ol' usa. excellent shot. very moving and bleak

my pleasure. i guess i am too young to say i was cynical in the reagan years. to me reagan was something of a hero. but this jackass is just out of control.

excellent capture bro, damn. Digging how the red tone sort of sombers the piece, along with the tatter on the flag, well done

(if all goes halfway well, I'll be visiting there, as well as some other Hopi happenings this year... more to come)

thanks, the cool thing is I didn't have to jack with any color, the wind was blowing that red dirt everywhere and it turned everything so fu**ing red, I wish I could have captured it the way I saw it, but such is life

So funny, how in the last few years digital has jumped ahead and advanced, and still, there's all kindsa of stuff neither film nor digital can capture accurately. Better that way sometimes though, I think.

Either way, what you caught was amazing enough
