This shot was taken for the Monthly Challenge theme - 'FULL STRIDE' over on the 5 FIA Flickr Group.
I just can't resist a shot when I'm at this spot in Hannover. I love the straight lines and gritty background. One of my favourite backdrops in the city center.
Thanks for taking the time to view my image. Your comments & faves are greatly appreciated.

I saw this couple walking around the Lake yesterday and I noticed the man's hat. I asked him if I could take a photo of the logo. He agreed and he told me that it was designed and made by his girlfriend who is a graphic designer.
GROUP: MACRO MONDAYS
THEME: STITCH
SUBJECT: USA LOGO ON A CAP
(not quite 2" horizontally)
Hat - A covering for the head, especially one with a shaped crown and brim.
This hat rack hangs in our foyer, and as you can see is doing a great job keeping our hats safe and sound. Granted, aside from the two 'straw' hats, the remaining hats are also considered caps.
A few of those caps are 'souvenirs' from places we've visited, purchased when we needed something to protect our heads from the sun and heat during that trip.

I am probably a typical American in that I wear a baseball cap to protect my eyes and face from the sun. And when it rains, the cap's visor keeps my eyes dry and the view clear.
I looked up the origins of the baseball cap. I had always assumed that it was borrowed from cricket of the 1800s, a game that is popular around the world in the British Commonwealth and even was played in the former British colony of America. But an article by BaggyCap writes that it actually is the other way around. Although cricketers wore various hats, they did not wear the modern eight-panel baggy ball cap with a peak until the Americans invented it. Cricketers loved the functionality of the American baseball cap so much that they borrowed it for cricket.
"Most people justifiably associate the Baggy Cap with the game of cricket...which was played all around the world in the 1800s. There is however no doubt that from the historical perspective at least...this is a commonly held fallacy and a very inaccurate assumption because there is no doubt the origins of the Baggy Cap actually originate from the game of Baseball! … Following Peck & Snyders manufacturing of the Boston style baseball cap … this style of cap quickly became cricket’s preferred style of headwear...and as you can see there are many photos and depictions of cricketers wearing a baggy styled Boston Cap in the mid to late 1800s in the US, Canada and England." — Source: BaggyCap.com
Note: The rim of the cap's visor in the frame above is approximately 2 inches long.
My favorite cap! My dad bought this at the George Eastman House (Eastman/Kodak Museum) in Rochester New York Years ago. It looks clean because I think its too good to wear. How twisted is that that I do not wear my favorite hat!
18% Grey is the level of grey to which in camera light meters attempt to meter a scene. In other words, your camera meter assumes that whatever you are metering is reflecting back light that averages 18% grey over the entire frame. That is why when you meter a snow scene it will expose dark and you end up with grey snow.

Kellie's Castle with its Moorish / Indo-Saracenic style windows; I like how the guy's striped shirt and cap echo the bricks and the shape of the window :-)

A nice young couple I chatted with for about 15 minutes or more.
I met them near the area I previously saw the bear, on Wiley Road. She use to work for Parks Canada.

Another LOTD shot - quite sportive and casual. I love this bodysuit and the pants. In my opinion really awesome.
I love baseball caps, even though there's nothing like a bad hair day in SL, it feels good to have them on every now and then.
