 A friend and I were playing with "Drawing with Light" We found this excellent location with a huge painted flag on an old abandoned gas station, and went at it.

This was inspired by a recent post over at Strobist, but no strobes were used. I had one LED flashlight for writing "LOVE," and another flashlight (2 million candle lights) brushed quickly against the flag to give it some more detail and light.

Do you remember the TV show "Love, American Style" from the early 70s? After seeing this photo, I can't get the song out of my head. "Love, American style. Doing it in Red, White and Blue. Love, American Style. That's me and you..." I like this pic.

Really cool shot, love the feel to it, i'd rather it not have the white brick above the flag showing, but still a 9 from me, a very cool shot

Wel done - would probably work well as a stock shot or for a card.
