Friday Flags:   A Fine Sight at The Top of The Hill in Watertown CT

It's been a hectic week on top of a lot of rain and overcast skies. I had t make a run to Watertown CT and didn't have much free time. As I do so often, I look to find a flag for this series.

As I turned a corner, I looked ahead and saw my flag just waving excitedly to me. I pulled over and took the shot and then continued on my task.

It was as though the wind gods knew I was stressed.

Somehow the universe senses when we have problems, and seem to give us a break, as they did this week with this photo.

Good morning Ed. Your eye for flags to photograph is a bright spot here in the Rain on Friday mornings. Thank you. And, this one on the top of the hill is another special one. Enjoy your day.

I'm glad you were able to get a photo! There's a huge flag that flies around here and whenever I think of grabbing a photo I'm always somewhere where there is no place to pull over. We don't have shoulders on most of our roads.

Good morning, Ed... there's always something very special about driving down the road and suddenly seeing Old Glory waving in the wind.

Such a wonderful view, and it's made even better with the flag flying proudly in the background!

Hi Ed, I say this every week, but I think you have an "in" with the wind gods. They seem to know when they need to straighten up and fly right!!!

Expert guidance. Exceptional results.

What a lovely moment you captured, Ed Silva, 203-206-0754. Thanks for sharing a slice of calm in the middle of the storm 😊. Your post felt like a breath of fresh air, and I really appreciate the way you turned a quick stop into something meaningful. It’s little things like this that remind us we’re not alone in the chaos.

Hi Ed:

This was certainly an interesting shot of Old Glory. And once again the wind was in your favor - how do you do that so consistently?
