[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
In tribute of the 400th anniversary of Acadia, I took this shot of their national flag on the inaugural day of the celebrations held at Havre-Aubert (Magdalen Islands).
As i was walking by, i noticed a scooter parked along the sidewalk, with his front wheel turned in a way that the retrovisor was giving me a nice backlook. I started looking into it at different angles and finally found the flag behind me showing in the mirror. The post sign is for a local show club, «Au Vieux Treuil». Some facts about it here
--- Tech notes: Took around 10-12 frames to get the flag properly showing, not too much folded. Then, post-process consisted of levels ajustements and some local saturation for the flag. Normal sharpening.

Interesting photograph. It is excellent! Thanks!

This is an excellent creative composition. The way you show this flag through the mirror is very imaginative. Well done.
Thanks for the links, they were interesting.
