Cathy, Very beutiful photo and idea. Did you use a polarizer? I like how the pole runs flush with the tall pine tree, and comes out at the very tip of it.
Contrary to an earlier comment, this photo is not shallow...at all. We may have the highest incarceration rate, but we also have A LOT of people...I'm a soon to be US Air Force Pilot, and it's always nice to see people paying a tribute to this great nation. And I'm going to be defending the right to criticize it. Every nation has its problems, and there are many more places than the US in the world, but I like this place the best :-).
