Flag dedication:

© 2012 by The York Daily Record/Sunday News. Members of the West York VFW gather for a group photo before the dedication ceremony for the new flag and flagpole installed in front of the NHS School in West Manchester Township on Thursday, April 12, 2012. With help from the West York VFW and Ladies Auxiliary, the NHS School in West Manchester Township purchased a flagpole, flag and lights that are now installed in front of the building. The school currently serves children on the autism spectrum.
This photo ran large in the next day’s paper. When Jeff saw it, his first reaction was, “That photo is so not ‘you.'”
“What do you mean? I took it.”
“I know you took it. But it’s not very ‘you.’ It’s graphical.”
“So what? I can shoot graphically. I’m versatile.”
I relish that I’m still able to surprise even my photographer boyfriend sometimes.
this particular image translates a sense of both humble stoicism and pride. beautiful!
