A few days before I made this photograph, I stopped at Our Daily Brew, a locally owned coffee shop at the Time Corners Shopping Center in Fort Wayne, Indiana. I bought a latte and drank it on my way home.
Before I threw away the paper cup it came in, I noticed a small American flag printed above the "This drink is hot" warning at the bottom of the cup! Lots of businesses around here display the flag in their windows or paint it on the sides of their vehicles. It seemed kind of out of place at the bottom of a coffee cup, though.
I went back and got another latte, and photographed it on one of the shop's tables while the girl working there wondered why the heck I was photographing a paper coffee cup!

Update: Our Daily Brew closed down in July, 2014. I had been buying coffee and tea there for nearly 20 years, going back to when the store was still in its original location in the Glenbrook Square Mall on Fort Wayne's north side.
All of my prints are available framed or unframed. I use black metal Neilsen & Bainbridge frames with white cotton unbuffered museum board for the mat and backing board for maximum archival protection. Photographs are printed on an Epson pigment printer using Epson's archival ultrachrome inset for long life.
