Showing the Flag

When the snow fell, I decided that I should get to town hall if ever I were to make a dent in my project for the year. With snow on the roof and hardly anywhere else on the building, I was definitely looking upward through the camera. In post edit, I converted all of the photos to a non-contrasty monochrome to suit the snowy day, but I left the flag colourized.






I like 1, 3 and 5 best and it that order.

My resolve is to return with my telephoto lens after another snowfall to try to pick out details on the roof. We shall see what we shall see.

  1. How patriotic of you! Well, if it's not the intent, it certainly says that to me. I do like the B&W details, which always show texture so well.

    1. It wasn’t intent, but I’m okay with that take. 😀

  2. I'm glad to see the Canadian flag is flying high and proud - long may it continue!

  3. Your flag is my favorite flag of any country I've ever seen. Simple, nicely designed and it always looks good and uncluttered. See how well it shows, even on a cloudy day?!

    1. And yet i was contentious at the time — as is the way with things. My conservative friend did not approve, I guess he want the Union Jack somewhere on the flag.

    1. Thanks, but I won’t include them all in my project: too many similar images.

  5. Fun! I like it. Another cool detail is that I can see the time you spent there!
    ;)
    That first shot is my fav. But they are all fun.
    I will be interested to see what you do with a telephoto lens!

  6. We were away visiting family when the first measurable snow fell in Nashua, NH, a mere 2 inches last weekend. However, another snowfall is predicted for this coming Sunday overnight, so hopefully snow photos will be in future. I've been enjoying yours.

  9. I like 3 or 4 the best. I love the pop of flag color! Several years ago I got a similar shot in New York of snow (not modified) with the fluorescent color of a street sign. You liked the photo as I recall.
