Leading Lines

"AMERICAN SPIRIT"

This image is of the flag hanging from the ceiling of the John F Kennedy Presidential Library, surrounded by the windows and metal beams that make up the architecture of the building. I took this image with my phone after being struck by the fantastic architecture of the area of the library that looks out to Boston.

This image utilizes leading lines, with many of the poles stretching to the flag, and the stripes of the flag leading to the sky. This image had such great colors, that it required very little editing on my part.

It is supposed to evoke a sense of patriotism and perhaps the idea of climbing to the top being an American ideal, as the metal poles look very climbable, and the whole image just reaches up. If I were to change something, I would have liked to take this with my DSLR.
