Any flag photo's

Hi

I have been setting up a new Blogsite for photo's of flags.

http://flags1st.blogspot.com/

The idea is to get people who are away on holiday (or where they are living) to post images of themselves with a flag. Either a country flag or any other interesting flag. I wouldn't like to put anything negative on the site as it's supposed to be lighthearted.

I was also thinking of getting a flag and posting it around the world to different people. A bit like the stolen Gnome idea.....I have seen a Flag of the World that might do, but if you have any ideas of one that would travel well around the world, please let me know

I will have a "Best of the Month" flag image, (when I get some images...) but as yet haven't any funds to give away a prize.......

So if you are away on your hols or have a pic of you and a flag then I would love to hear from you

Cheers

Ian

Here's one from the World Trade Center site, 2 years ago.

The flag in front is from the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey.

Hi all

Thanks for the great response so far....I am impressed...

Has anyone got images with people in them too like the football ones and the marching. The ones with buildings too are a great indicator of where the photo's were taken......These are all from your own personal photo albums are they?

Thanks ever so much and please keep them coming....

Cheers

Ian

Hi

Thanks so much for the flags images....Here's one from Nimbin in Western Australia. It has quite a few flags in the picture including buddhist and peace flags...

Does anyone have any more interesting ones I could put on my blog?

Cheers

Ian
