 We had a very windy day in our neighborhood and many of the Christmas decorations were blown down. I guess Santa misjudged the crosswind and this is the result.

Well, that's what happens when you try to land a snowsled on grass... The photo doesn't really say wind to me, but I like the humor in it. 8

The colors seem a bit washed out and don't like the cropped out reindeer on the upper left. But the title of this photo is hilarious and made me laugh out loud -- a 7.

IMO I don't see wind protrayed in your picture other than the play on your title. If you could of taken it from a different perspective that could of showed wind blown trees or leaves that would show wind or a slow SS as santa fell over I think you photo would of been better. The photograph also seems to be out of focus or very soft.
