Very visual image... I know, I know, of course it's visual but I mean the colours and lines makes this more than it seems. The girl with the red flag is positioned so perfectly for this image. VERY nicely done, mine dahling!!!

I was on the flagline in H.S. it was the most fun I had during my four years. In the halls they called us the "flagetts". ha ha
