1001 Photography motives # 75 national flag

There are probably 1001 ways of photographing the national flag of any nation.  Old stars and stripes seemed to me to be such a big part of the identity of a nation that I had to start my book USA My Way with this images. It was not the absolutely first images I shot when I set my foot on American ground for the first time, but one of the first shot where I new just about what I was doing.

After an hectic time of preparing, little sleep for days and then landing in USA with a bit of an extra packaged that had not be planed., our dog. I was starting to relax as we drove the rental car from Baltimore to Texas where Benzi would be waiting for us.

I do not know weather the fact that the flag is torn set any tone for what was to come and my impression of USA. It might just as well depict the feeling lurking inside of me as we started this journey that would last for two years and take us through many states.

My book USA My Wy is now out and can be bought from Blurb.
