Description
On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Will it ever come back to what it should be ? Or could be. There are glimmers of hope though out the world but one has to look hard for them. Excellent job !

thank you Diane,
being an outsider i have this fear that it's going to take a while for it to come to mean what its suppose to mean and your right there are glimmers, but the past haunts us all and the present is always here with us ....

Aww, thanks mate.....well, yes, it's a Disney world view sometimes. I love the final result (although Mom and Dad would for sure say these stars and stripes now deserves a proper retirement ceremony per protocols). I think it captures the times our flag and nation have seen and weathered, and the smoke and damages of war and the rockets red glare. Well done, and you found the perfect setting in my mind.

yes it really is a Disney world sometimes, i also know that what should happen to "S&S" but i might keep it outside for another year and see what happens ... yes thats what i wanted it to show, thats why ive called it "the return"

Well, you can follow the UK protocols perhaps. I need to go hang my own S&S out now the rains have ceased, and await the fireworks to come.
It's been an adventure and inspiration since meeting my English mate for sure! Happy capturing my friend. Here's to an in-person meeting of the US-UK-Irish (since I plan to have John show me his parent's homeland) minds one of these days!
