Behind The Lens

Location

I took this shot from the middle of a two-lane highway in a small town in rural Kansas. The wind was blowing hard that day, and the way the flag was snapping over the road caught my eye.

Time

This photo was taken around midday.

Lighting

It was a sunny day, and the sun was almost directly overhead.

Equipment

I used a cheap digital camera to shoot this pic through the windshield of a moving vehicle.

Inspiration

I love the rolling effect of a big flag in strong wind, and I loved the way the frayed edges of the flag came into focus in this shot.

Editing

None whatsoever! Point and shoot only.

In my camera bag

I always carry a camera, spare battery, and a small tripod.

Feedback

Always carry a camera! It doesn't matter how good of a shot presents itself, if you don't have a camera, you can't capture it.
