District Flags

I've started a project to photograph all of the district flags in the City of Richmond and convert them into B&W.  Figured when I've got them all I could make them into a collage or something.  Here are the first few that I've completed.  The toughest part so far is getting similar lighting conditions, it's so hit or miss lately.  My favorite is, coincidentally, the "Welcome to Richmond" flag.

  1. Totally agree. The shot of the Welcome to Richmond sign is the best composed shot of the three. Even more than the lighting and angle, it's the contrast between the clouds and the sky behind it that totally make this shot work overtime. The word "rich" comes to mind in describing the gradients and contrasts in this photo.

  2. Thanks! I think the angle of the sun in relation to my lens and polarizer had something to do with getting such great results. Still working on duplicating it...
