The South African flag features a black triangle, green "y", and colored stripes.
A medium view of the South African flag waving through the air and facing towards the right. The flag is placed on a thin metal pole that runs vertically and on the left. On the left side of the flag, there is a black triangle. The point of the triangle is facing towards the right, while the base of it is facing left. Surrounding the triangle is a thin yellow line. To the right of the triangle, there is a large "y" that is facing left and is green. This part of the flag is outlined by white markings. Underneath the "y," there is a part of the flag that is blue and rectangular, while the left side of it runs vertically and slightly to the right. Above the "y," it is red, but it can hardly be seen because the flag is waving through the air. Behind the flag there is a cloudy gray sky, these clouds are outlined by the sun's rays, and seen through the gaps of these clouds is the dark blue sky.
