Photographed on January 8, 2025 during the Pacific Palisades fires, this image captures an American flag damaged by smoke and heat, hanging by its final ring as the sky behind it filled with ash. The sun pushed through the smoke, casting a muted glow that softened the destruction surrounding it.

The flag was torn and partially burned, yet still standing. What remained was not perfection, but resilience.

Printed on Hahnemühle FineArt Baryta Satin 300gsm archival paper, this museum-grade piece preserves the depth, warmth, and atmospheric haze of that moment. Each print is signed, titled, dated, and released in a limited edition of three.

This photograph documents endurance in real time.
