Windforce 10 by Adri Padmos
Today something very differently! Something that you don’t know of me …... ART!! / Every year in June in our municipality is organised an Art-tour (in 2009 for the 16th time). / The title of this art festival is (in Dutch): Kunstschouw Westerschouwen This art route goes along more than 40 locations with all kinds of forms of art, both in galleries and on locations in the open air. / Many, many people visit that time these exhibitions of art; both from own country and from the surrounding countries. / And ….. access is free! This picture is a part of the project “Windkracht 10” (Windforce 10; or is it Windstrength 10 ??). / On the Easterschelde dike 10 artistic “flags” are established. All flags have something with the elements wind, water and sky. In combination with the sky you can take nice pictures. Have a sunny Weekend! / Greetings from Zeeland, Netherlands, / Adri Exif: Camera Maker=NIKON CORPORATION / Camera Model=NIKON D80 / Lens=Nikkor 18-135 / Software=Adobe Photoshop CS2 Windows / Exposure Time=1/250 sec / F-Number=F8,0 / ExposureProgram=Shutter priority / ISO=100 / Date Time Original=2008:06:14 17:06:17 / Metering Mode=MultiSegment / Focal Length=31,00 mm / User Comment=(C)ADRIPADMOS / ColorSpace=sRGB / Exif Image Width=3911 / Exif Image Length=2702 / ExposureMode=Auto / WhiteBalance=Auto / Contrast=Normal / Saturation=High / Sharpness=Hard

Jack Boots by Corbin Adler
I only ever created two pairs of Union Jack boots. This is the first pair. These were sprayed white and then the design brush painted on top. I remember because it was an absolute pig trying to keep the lines straight.

Ornamental Fruit by Adri Padmos
Hello dear RB-friends, Today I show you a sunny and colorful picture from our former island of Schouwen-Duiveland (Netherlands). I made this picture last year at a farm in my neighbourhood. / Many farmers here sell products such as potatoes, onions, vegetables and fruit to passers-house, mostly tourists. This farmer sells ornamental fruit in all types and sizes; therefore he has made this beautiful sellingpoint.

Sock It To Me Baby - Windsock, Palm Beach - Sydney - Australia by Bryan Freeman
This windsock is on the end of a pier at Station Beach which is very close to Palm Beach, Sydney. There are seaplane joy flights departing and returning on a regular basis. The shortest joyflight is 15 minutes and the views over Palm Beach and beaches south towards the City are fantastic. Unfortunately, I am never around when the seaplanes land, but I keep going back up there in the hope that one day, I’ll be able to capture one landing.

A Funeral in Arlington by Cora Wandel
A horse-drawn caisson carries an American veteran to his grave in Arlington National Cemetery. For a caisson funeral seven horses are used—three teams of two plus a lead horse to the left of the first team. The three teams together pull the flag draped casket on a black artillery caisson. All six horses pulling the caisson are saddled, but only the three horses on the left side carry riders, while the horses on the right are riderless as a symbolic gesture to the fallen soldier. Thank you to the groups ”#1 Artists of Redbubble”, “American Patriot” and “A Place To Call Home” for featuring this photograph. Camera: Canon XTi 400D / (ISO: 400; Shutter Speed: 1/500; Lens: 17-85mm) This photograph is “as is” from the camera, there was no post processing.

Adenauer a la Isetta by Ranald
Just a bit fun with the Isetta “bubble car”. I thought I would try to make a German flag.
About This Group
Flags are a common denominator throughout the world. They permiate through human culture in every corner of civilisation and produce immense emotion in those viewing them; pride, passion, hatred. This poignancy is not presented by many things as simple as a piece of cloth.
They stand for many things, good or bad, country, organisation or team, pride or fear, and exude a spirit of their own when revealing the great power of wind that people do not otherwise see. This ever-changing movement presents an unusual photographic challenge, whether the flag be an evocative symbol or a simple decorative device.
Show us how you captured the flags you have seen around the world, how they interact with their surroundings and tell us what they meant to you, the people who put them there or the energy they gave.
The rules are clearly “flags” but flags often fit into the background as strongly as they do the foreground. If you think a flag adds an additional layer of meaning or atmosphere to a photo, then present it here.
