Proposed Flag for Town of Port Hawkesbury, NS – Design B3

PORT HAWKESBURY, NS
Design B3
Nautical P with hawk head

Like Design B2, this design features a nautical flag for the letter P in the Town colours of Port Hawkesbury. I chose the green instead of light blue in this one for a different look to the background anc colour combination, with the opinion of the light green seen here, light blue in Design B2, don’t go well together, which they have to in layouts like this. As for the charge, I chose a stylized hawk head with a tad of the wings instead of an entire hawk silhouette. Sometimes a larger rendering of something smaller is preferable to a smaller rendering of something larger like the full hawk in Design B2.

As a side note, from this B series of designs, I have found a “formula” for flags for “port” cities, towns, and even corporations, that don’t have a lot to go on besides maybe a charge and colours (which may be the city to which the last might belong, like the Port of Oakland and the city of Oakland). This “formula” would be the nautical flag for the letter P for “port”, in corporate colours with the darkest being used for the border. Then on the lighter background, either put the logo or symbol charge in a darker colour, or knock it out in white if the interior colour is still a big on the dark side, like my Design B2.
