The Daily Flag has built up a nice stock of "flag" photos, and there are certain flag photos that I have used more than once, but I have never used this one again since the first time I showed it to you.

Today I am starting a new feature at The Daily Flag. Each week I will present a special flag photograph —something that catches the eye and makes you smile, or evokes other strong emotions.
