Week 13 Good to WOW SOOC “Up”
This week I found time to participate in Jill’s weekly SOOC (straight out of camera) challenge. This week’s theme is “UP”.
My hubby and I went yesterday afternoon down-town Tempe and Tempe Town Lake. Actually it is one of our favorite spots to take photographs in the Metro Phoenix area.
I usually challenge myself to photograph with one particular lens on our weekly photography outings. This week I went with my very slowwwwww kit-lens (18-55mm/3.5-5.6). The only thing I added to the lens was my circular-polarizer filter; this was a good investment with the harsh light we have here in the Valley of the Sun 
.
So, for this week I am entering the below photograph: a reflection of the American flag in a window. I had to look up in order to take this photograph 
.
To see a larger version of the above photo, please visit my Flickr Page. I have a couple of ideas on how to make the photograph “WOW”, but not sure if I will get the result I am looking for.
To find more “Up” photographs for this week’s challenge, please visit Jill’s website “Jill Samter Photography“.
Thank you for stopping by today; remember: sometimes we need to look up to see ‘treasures’.

I really like this. It looks great just SOOC.
That is a reflection? Amazing! So bright and vibrant!
Iris – you ROCKED this shot! Awesome job
cool shot – I love that it’s a reflection and not simply a shot of a flag – very creative!
I love how clear the reflection is! Great job on this! And a unique shot for UP too!
Love this…..gorgeous!
