19th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest The American Experience
Resilience

This is a photo of a partially burned home in Rhode Island. Even though heavily damaged by the fire someone is still living in the house and an American flag is proudly flying at the front of the house. This image made me think of the resilience of the American people and perhaps people in general - facing adversity but not giving up.
