Blue with Fern



This is a version of 'Fresh Green with Fern' except the yellow-green background is replaced with a bluish background.

This colour combination is still fairly unique because not many flags use black except as an outline (possibly because of European superstitions). However the blue makes it less unique than its green counterpart. The blue used in this design is different to the darker blue of the current flag which I've traditionally associated with colonial northern Europe (Britain, France, Netherlands).

Like its green counterpart I don't think this flag shrinks very well and looks muddled in a small thumbnail size (and therefore not great from a distance either). Sort of looks like a jandal almost..

This is a shocking flag, cluttered and off balance; again it carries art rather than simple flag design. 1/10
