The rainbow flag flying above the Castro district. You can't really tell from the photo, but it's an enormous flag, almost but not quite as big as the American flag that flies on Ithaca's south hill near Rogan's Corner.
Flags of missionaries flying outside the England Missionary Training Centre of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Chorley, England.

I have around 150 photos so be sure to keep an eye on my photostream :)
As usual, comments appreciated.
Thanks & Enjoy,

As ubiquitous as I'd been given to expect. Actually these big flags do look really impressive against a dramatic sky, and I liked the gold eagle at the top of the flagpole here.

Prayer flags such as these are a common sight in the northern state of Sikkim in India. The styles of flags change as you go northwards and eastwards to more dominant Buddhist states and countries. The prayers are written for souls and for the well being of others.
Very large 38 star US post flag, 10' x 19'. Said to have hung on the Hull Building along Wall Street on Parade Days. This flag design became the Official United States Flag on July 4th, 1877. A star was added for the admission of Colorado (August 1st 1876) and was to last for 13 years.
Donated to the Scranton Memorial Library in 2013 by Anne Hull. The library then donated the flag to MHS in Jan 2021. Flag is fair-to-poor condition with repairs and tears.

The present day buildings of Exchange Flags date from 1939 but trading activity in the area can be dated back to the thirteenth century.
The memorial to Horatio Nelson at the centre of The Flags was unveiled in 1813 and is acknowledged as Liverpool’s first major public sculpture. The bronze castings of four prisoners represent French sailors in torment at Nelson’s four greatest triumphs. Thousands of French sailors were held in the city as prisoners of war during the Napoleonic Wars.
This guy kept waving the Old Hong Kong flag while the Police below him try and convince him to come down. As Police numbers grew, he only increased his intensity. With so many cameras, phones and videos the Police could not do anything but watch.
I think he is still there.
The Picture This! assignment for this week was Clouds. All week, we had either all gray skies or clear skies with no clouds. So finally today the clouds showed up and I had to scramble to grab the photos. I had pretty much resigned myself to taking a photo of the blue skies to show the very rare Cumulus Invisabus clouds that we only see in the NE Ohio area an average of 30 days per year. LOL! Anyway, when I was looking for an interesting way to shoot the clouds, I noticed these flags and thought they would make a dramatic point of interest.

Flags on Fifth Ave., New York City. Taken with a Canon 5D Mark II. Because of Flag movement I opted to create this HDR from a single shot RAW in Photomatrix.

Flag Day is already a well-known and beloved competition among students from five high schools in Bucharest, organized by the Public Diplomacy Section. Participating for the first time, this year’s high schools (Mihai Eminescu, Nicolae Iorga, C.A. Rosetti, Mihail Sadoveanu and Dimitrie Paciurea) developed depictions of all 50 U.S. States and the District of Columbia.
Held in the Embassy’s courtyard for the first time, the 150 students exhibited the displays they created to illustrate representative elements for each of the states, all related to the history, culture and language of the Native Americans. The winners received American books and stationary and had a fun pizza picnic on the lawn.
