I don’t often shoot the US flag specifically, but I was at an outlet center and saw this large flag they have on site backlit by the sun. It was one of those huge flags you often see at such places. I thought I would try a couple shots of it. I had my ISO set at 400 because I wanted to make sure I stopped the movement of the billowing flag. I did, but because I was shooting into the sun, my shutter speed maxed out at 1/4000 and I overexposed the first shot. Subsequent shots were exposed better but I liked the overexposed one the best and chose it for my 365 shot of the day. All shots with Pentax K20D, DA55-300
