Funny how taking photos of public property is becoming illegal ...

this looks like a small portion crop of a larger photo,noisy and pixelated edges,nothing special and bad challenge choice :-(

Could be my glasses, but seems a little blurry. Possible tight crop?

Your lucky he didn't shoot. :)

i'm a bit confused as to your intent. armed patrols doesn't scream independence to me. quality wise you had some tough conditions to work with...strong sun and choppy water. the foam and lettering are a bit blown out so you could have done well to stop down (if possible) this smaller aperture may have also helped improve your slight fuzziness.

to blurry, to sharp, might crop it much more and the subject is independence, I think you're depend on security.

Do I sense a political commentary here?

Great opportunity to really have some color contrast, but it's a little lacking. The water could be really blue. I wish the boat were in better focus.

i would have liked this to be sharper, water and white near top of boat is blown out.
