Very nicely framed vertical shot with excellent depth of field. All images extremely sharp with great color.This unique combination of subjects is very eye appealing- well done!

a great capture of the moon
behind the American flag
the colours of the flag stand out against the blue sky the moon adds interest and balance to the scene, a patriotic scene which is well framed for maximum impact.

A nationalistic capture.
Creative concept. Innovative approach. Imaginative presentation.

Diffused focusing.
Please enhance color & clarity.

Tall format & title is apt for this subject.

Bright lighting.
Thanks for sharing...

I really like this photo, anytime I see Old Glory blowing in the wind it makes me so proud to be an American and to also have served my country with honor and dignity. Thank you for this. JackJr

Comment from nikman


Not sure that I would classify this scene as a landscape but it is a good shot! Your composition captures an almost perfect flag/moon moment!! Sharpness and exposure are fine. Nicely done!

    Thanks Nik! I wasn't sure what the heck to classify it as with the available choices! I guess I'm not off to a very good start this year :) I thought maybe expressive, but I'm not sure it can be categorized that way either..... I changed it to "other" that ought to work!

An excellent juxtaposition of two subject that are not often thought of together. The image is well composed and shown in excellent colors.
