Flowers and Flag

The two pictures of the lilacs and the picture of the American Flag were taken one day when I was playing around with my new camera. I was taking pictures out the window of my apartment. I had never had a camera that took good action shots, and since the wind was causing enough motion that I was having trouble with blurring, I turned on the setting for motion, and increased the zoom. The result was these three pictures. I love how you can almost see the seams on the flag and the individual blossoms on the lilacs.
