Memorial Day

Happy Memorial Day a day to remember the fallen service men and women of the American armed forces from the Revolutionary soldiers of the Civil War to the present day.

This photograph was inspired by the flag of the United States of America, the Stars and Stripes and the clothing that has defined America for a century or more denim. I wanted to illustrate either the industrial success of the United States or the pioneer spirit that settled the west and brought us the pioneers and cowboys and also a tip of the hat to the sixties and the baby boomers who made jeans the clothing of choice for every generation since that.

I folded a small American flag and put it in a back pocket of a pair of jeans to create a graphically clean image with striking colors.
