'Flags Belonging To No Nation'

We often consider flags as a symbol of a nation, creed, idea or something people can stand for and fight for. Sometimes people die for ideas, causes or a sense of belonging to something greater. Well, nobody is dying for these flags. These were made to inspire good feelings by their beauty and not by any meaning. I respect that a lot and therefore they've found their way into my photography series.

I've found them hanging freely in the middle of a city's park and immediately grew fond of them. Notice the composition. Their square shapes are juxtaposed against the living, organic background and do not blend into it. I find motifs interesting and lively, so it had to be composed in a proper manner, with a background that works well with the idea.

Quite strong colours were used, and they draw our attention to the flags. One more reason for choosing a greenish background. Not a flat one, but still neutral enough. One of the flags has a hole in the middle. The background perfectly fits in it. :)

Enjoy! :)

The flag is often one of the symbols of the state. However, many formations, cities, and so on have glades. In history, there are not a few cases when people fought for their independence. However, flags are like a symbol of the nation, but at the same time one of the constituent elements that are called upon to individualize nations and create patriotic feelings among them. I respect the culture of other people, however, patriotism is often used by politicians to make one nation hate the other. This is bad.
I like those flags you photographed. In my opinion, they are a wonderful decoration for the city park. It is interesting to observe what is depicted on them. The flag on which the apple is depicted is very beautiful.
Thank you!

Oh in my country flags are used in different ways. Every city, every group can have, and has a flag. I mean flags nowadays symbolize so much. Even terrorists have one.

These flags are not just symbols but they represent a struggle and background for achieving or for working for their motives.
These flags are probaby of some organization or company. They are really beautifully captured by you sir

I like the colors of these flags, they are very well accented. The light between the trees makes them look great.

Flags are sign of a nation. Nation can be progressive or not but impressive logo on flag attracts others and create suspense in them. This flag is giving sign of building nation that challenges other nations to compete with it and its open challenge for others, only those nation will compete that had potential in them.
