# 020/365
In honor to the 44th president of the US, Barack Obama, here is a set respectfully dedicated to the US Flag.
After digging out our 4th of July flag and flagpole I brought it inside the apartment, and started taking some photos from different angles.
I was mostly interested in shapes, colors, wrinkles, and dramatic DoF.
I used my tripod, macro slider, large aperture settings (2.6 - 8.0), no flash, and semi-long exposures.
A recommendation that has been working well for me: before anything, take a photo of a white piece of paper, then use that for custom white balance; otherwise if you are using Photoshop, adjust the light setting (I'm shooting RAW) to the appropriate light type.
