Flags on Saks Fifth Avenue

The strong sunlight coming through the American flags was eye catching.

There wasn’t much wind to capture the food images on the 193 flags. There’s a shot below of Prometheus eating a slice of NY Pizza. Info on the Gilded Prometheus sculpture here

I caught a glimpse of Nathan’s Hot Dogs Flag

When You See a Flagpole

Did you ever see a flagpole being erected? Me either.

The other day, I saw this truck at the red light-Herron Hill aand Bigelow Boulevard intersection in Pittsburgh. Got thinking what would flagpole services entail?

Installation for one. Make sure it’s stable and straight. And then there’s maintenance. I’ve seen some tall ones. Pretty much ignore that they are there.

Can’t be easy to secure a tall flagpole.  I can tell you I’ve never given flagpoles or how they came to be there,  much thought –

Until I saw the truck.  Got me thinking about flagpoles.
