Greetings from the Critique Club (and America)
I wish I could see the front of the statue in this shot. There is a lack of context for the shot that makes it not much more than a statue in a corner. I like the clouds in the shot, but it doesn't feel .. whole. Maybe like something is missing?
Oh, and the statement is excellent - whether I agree with you or not (I don't), you DID something with your photo. It MEANS something. That's worth a lot.

This works for me. It was represents a serendipitous event n history and the photographer has used an unusual view point to make a humorous statement. |

One can't "discover" a place that has been inhabitted for centuries before. Perhaps that attitude is why american's aren't that well liked around the world.
The photo is mediocre at best, too. |

While the photo is a decent shot and Mr. ErÃksson may have serendipitously found america. (I don't know his story) ...this doesn't say "serendipity" to me.... more like "nice pic of a statue" |

cause the people who'd been living in 'America' for 12000 years already do not really count, do they? |

Excellent shot. I like the placing of the statue on the far right-hand side even though it leaves a lot of space ahead of him. The sky is quite good. |

it's hard to discover a country already inhabited by others but aside from this factual gliche in the title, which did not affect my scoring, this one of the better representations fo the challenge. good work. 9 |

Hey - one of my Norweigan country men! Nice... and they did find America by accident. I love it! |
