Foto Finish - White

Foto Finish

Cat patches hosts this weekly meme. Her theme this week is white but not necessarily snow.
I had to rack my brain for an idea.
This is a photo of the Nicaraguan coat of arms. It appears on most of their coins.

The coat of arms features a triangle encircled by the words REPUBLICA DE NICARAGUA on the top and AMERICA CENTRAL on the bottom.
  • It has the shape of an equal triangle
  • The triangle stands for EQUALITY
  • The rainbow signifies PEACE.
  • The phrygian cap symbolizes FREEDOM
  • The five volcanoes represent the UNION and the FRATERNITY between the five Central American countries.

This photo was taken in Central Park in Granada.

  4. Great idea for your "white" image. That's what I like about Barbara's themes, you sometimes have to get creative to find a photo that you can be interpreted to fit the theme or you end up posting something you might never have considered as "blog worthy", but is actually pretty intriguing. Great post this week.
