Goodness Patty, this photo is superb. And the text is great, too. Makes the image all that more enjoyable. You find the BEST quotes to go with your art (and YES, photography is art).

Patty, thanks for the lovely comment on my blog. I happened onto a blog I’ve never seen before and when I did, I found “prayer” flags. I got to looking at them, and even though there was no explanation of how they were made (you had to buy the tutorial), I could tell mine are made wrong. They need to have a hanger “pocket” that runs the width of the piece at the top, where mine have ribbons for hanging. I guess people string them on rope, twine, etc., and hang all of them together on whatever is available. Looks like I need to modify my design. I am anxious to see yours.
