Greetings from the Critique Club
You have created a humorous image that no doubt got many chuckles from voters. Whether it was a bit subtle for the voters is another question.
The contrast between the guy with the camera and the Minute Men is right on, topically. But technically, the guy in the white shirt is a bit hot and the soldiers are in shadow thus graying them out. I wonder if a polarizer would have helped make this image pop. Or perhaps, in another situation like this, bracketing could be helpful.
Composition might be slightly better if the camera guy was positioned to the right just a touch more.
Still, a fun image, and one to enjoy looking at.

| I like the concept, but the "minutemen" seem forcibly washed out. |

| I love the composition, but the graininess and pale colours let this image down in my opinion. Looks like it was a sunny day, but I guess their faces being in shadow made it darker. Still... it makes the observer stand out more and gives higher contrast which is good! |

| I think the subtle desaturation works well here, but I don't like the composition at all. 4. |

| You captured the contrast well! Also love the composition. Maybe a little bit more saturation for my taste. But definately love the shot. Keep up the good work. |
