Weekly Photo Challenge: In the Background

This week’s The Daily Post – Weekly Photo Challenge is:  In a new post created for this challenge, share a picture that says In the Background.  Click here to see the challenge.  Here’s my take on the theme.

As we were decorating our yard for Memorial Day, I noticed my yellow flower thing-ys  had begun blooming (does anyone know the name of these plants?).  I decided to snap some photos.  After I took the first one or two pictures, I remembered this week’s Photo Challenge and decided to see just what I could “catch” in the background of my frame.  I took these with my iPhone5 camera.  I wish now I would have used my good Sony.  Oh, well, hind-sight is always 20/20!

The intent of this shot was to get the flag with the roses. In The Background:  Three more of the flags down the sidewalk.

And I just cannot resist posting this next picture.  In the background is my front door with my Flip Flop Wreath!  (Click on the name of the post to see previous posts:  Flip Flop Frenzy – Part 2 and Flip Flop Frenzy).

I hope you enjoyed my take on the theme “In The Background.”

    An inspiring background at a time when our country remembers the men and women who everyday offer their lives so we can enjoy ours. My thoughts and prayers to our heroes and their families.

      Thank you! My youngest son has been in the Navy for eleven years. I’ve always been very patriotic, but am even more so now. That’s why we always decorate, and I decided to take some pictures of the house.
