The Nishan Sahib at Gurdwara Bradshaw stands so tall that it reaches into the sky to touch the clouds passing by.

This is a photo my daughter who is studying photography took of the Nishan Sahib, the Sikh flag, which is raised outside Gurdwara Bradshaw of Sacramento CA not far from her home.

The Nishan Sahib displays the Khanda, the Sikh coat of arms.
