      I find this image very interesting with the dark, tattered, transparent flag against the fresh, blue sky. The eye goes from the flag to the sky and back again to the flag, following the rays of sunshine from behind. Well done!

      Thanks Diane. I like the contrast of the rays with the sky on this one myself, and shooting with the flag blocking out the Sun helped me to hold most of the highlights.

      I love this, provokes all kinds of thoughts, kinda sinister, kinda beautiful. The rays are fantastic. :)

      There is quite a contrast between what the flag symbolises (sinister is quite a good word for it) and the feeling that the rays of light evoke. Cheers Matt, glad you like it :)
