Memorial Day Parade

I walked along the parade route yesterday, looking for photographs, both of the people in the parade, and the spectators along the parade route. For some reason I was taken with this young boy, dressed in red, holding an American flag. I am not sure, but it just felt like an interesting picture - I think it has to do with the light in this picture, and his expression has something to do with it. I know I already posted one photograph yesterday - the portrait of the bomber pilot. It felt as if that picture by itself didn't represent the parade itself. It was the story with the portrait that made the picture so interesting. So that's my excuse for posting a second picture from Memorial day.
