Voted earlier coming back to comment.
Those trees look like they are standing in salute to the flag. The shot has high potential but it needs a few things to strengthen the composition. First off I am guessing that the original file size was large - any time you have to take it down to a small file size it loses sharpness and detail. Minimal editing doesn't allow a two resize down but it does allow for sharpening twice (or more if you wish but then you run the risk of oversharpening). Second, I think the composition would be stronger if you composed it on a vertical to follow and complement the vertical lines of the trees and the flag pole. Also if it was possible a zoom (I realize sometimes you have to work with what equipment you have and/or cannot get physically closer) in to bring us closer to the main subject always is a bonus. Lastly, the composition would be stronger if the flag was blowing in the wind. Maybe you could have waited for that moment...then again maybe Mother Nature was refusing to cooperate and unfurl the flag for you. |
