Forever In Peace

Photographer Notes:

The Avenue of Flags was created as a symbol of support for the 53 Americans who were held hostage for 444 days in Iran (there are 444 flags in all). Most of the flags have draped the caskets of an American Veteran. This patriotic display is open to the public year-round.

Couldn't ask for a better day I'd say. The snow on the ground with the blue sky above really set the colors of the flags off. Very nice image, well done.
