Stars and Stripes and Sailors!

In celebration of Flag Day yesterday, this photo appeared on Bing.com’s home page.  It’s such a great image that I wanted to share it here too.

I don’t know who the photographer is, but he or she deserves credit for taking a stunning picture of what must have been quite an amazing sight in real life.  Great work!

  1. What a great image ... I love the visuals that capture life through the camera lens, there's a real honesty to them.

  2. I agree Joanne, and that honesty makes them all the more interesting-and arresting-to look at.

  4. I think our flag is one of the most beautiful in the entire world. Betsy Ross sure did know what she was doing. ;-)

  5. It's quite beautiful and I thought it was a staged picture from a movie but knowing it is a piece of history, I agree, the photographer really does deserve recognition! Thanks for sharing this.
