    Very interesting Awais. Shooting flags can be more challenging that it might seem - no one wants just a picture of a flag anymore, but one with the perfect curves, and displayed properly blowing in the wind.

    I learned something about the flag of Pakistan today also. Thank you Awais!

    Flags say a lot about the people they represent. There's very seldom anything "unsymbolic" or not thought-out about the design of a flag. If you look at the flag of Pakistan, and think of the star and crescent as "accents" to the primarily green field, the symbology is that minorities represent the accents, the "spice," or the "salt" that makes the population not dull.
    That's how I see it anyway.

    Howdy Awais,

    Very nicely done, and I really enjoyed knowing what the colors of your
    Flag represented.

    It seems you're really enjoying your new camera, much to our delight
    also!!
    Take care,
