The Eagan Rotary Club

I stepped back from the podium to photograph my Eagan Rotary Club saying the "Pledge of Allegiance." We begin each weekly, Wednesday lunch meeting in this way.

The pledge of Allegiance: "I pledge my allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, to the Republic for which is stands, one nation under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all."

FANTASTIC !!!!! I love that you all start your meetings this way. I wish it was more wide spread.

Looking forward to having you join us for another shoot.

This is quite a unique shot I think.
Well, I have seen perhaps the same "situation" on TV, in American films, but never ever a "REAL" photo!!

(I took one picture, from a meeting last week, but that was not even half as interesting as your photo. I started thinking about all these thousands/millions of meetings taking place..... I might take the camera with me this week to another meeting... Time will show.:-) )

Be careful, that line about God could get you in trouble.
