City - College Park State - MARYLAND Country - United States
About
I had to take my daughter to College Park last Saturday, and of course, schlepped my camera along for the ride back.
This pattern is part of a very long mural on the side of the South Seas restaurant, a Chinese food favorite in College Park, and one of the few Chinese restaurants in the world that doesn't have "Golden" or "Dragon" in its name :-)
The mural is in several sections, each with a different theme. This image shows part of a Maryland state flag, which contains the family crests of the Calvert and Crossland families (see http://www.50states.com/flag/mdflag.htm )
I photographed parts of this wall last October with my point-and-shoot digital camera, and I wanted to come back and shoot some more with my Digital Rebel. More photos of this wall to come...
now this is an image i would definently shoot..comp couldn't be better..thanks for including info in the about as always interesting to know why you chose this and where/what it is..perfect exposure..regards,gayle
Deb - I'm glad to have found your portfolio - hadn't seen it yet. Yes, the Maryland flag, although quite old, really holds up well in terms of graphic design! (see attached image)
excellent color coupling and photographic eye here; I like the light too; I doubt about the white triangle on the base of the shot which could not be convincing, speaking in composition, don't know
