This is a female Flag-tailed Spinyleg dragonfly. I followed this dragonfly for a good while and it kept landing in the grass and on the sidewalk. This photo was taken with the camera about one inch off the sidewalk. Seen near the pond in Bob Jones Park in Southlake, Texas on June 9, 2011. Large Size
This is an authentic example of an ultra-rare US flag. The 43rd state, Idaho, joined the USA on 3 July, 1890. According to law, new stars are added to the flag only on the July 4 following their admission. There were already four other states (ND, SD, MT, WA) that had become part of the union in the preceeding 12 months, so the US flag went from carrying 38-stars to 43 stars on 4 July, 1890. Flagmakers then began production of 43-star flags. However, Wyoming was admitted about a week later, on 10 July, 1890, bringing the total number of states to 44. Few, if any, flamakers complied with the law and kept producing 43 star flags - the demand was for 44-star flags, and that is what they made until Utah became the 45th state in 1896.
This 43 star flag is one of the few made during that period between July 4 and 10, 1890. There is no evidence that any stars have been removed from this flag. The stars are sewn with straight machine stitching. The flag was examined by Grace Rogers Cooper, late Curator of Textiles (and antique flag expert) of the Smithsonian. Grace stated that there was nothing about the construction of the flag that would lead her to doubt that it was a period 43-star flag. (Dimensions: 78 inches x 138.5 inches)
#288/365 A new grocery is having a grand opening and has over two dozen flags on their light poles. There was no way for me to capture them all in one shot. This row fills the frame pretty well. Thanks to Scott for the heads up about them.

I set my Nikon on continuous and fired away until the flag was in the exact position that I wanted. There were lots of shots missing the canton (blue part with the stars) since the only way to shoot the photo was underneath the flag. I also wanted the flag to have a "wave". I almost filled an 8GB card to get this shot. All the other photos that I took of the flag were underwhelming so I was very pleased to get this shot.
In all its red, white and green glory...
