Good job of exposing and composing. Only nit is that the monument is at an angle. 8

Alfred E. Neuman is the "FLASH"

Really cool effect. This is the only "toy" to make it to a high score for me. I'll be interested to see how you did this when the challenge is over. 9

I think the concept is good, but the compostion is a little boring. I think I might have tried a closer shot, maybe from an angle, to add some depth. It looks like you tried to keep the flag in the shot, but in this case, to do so creates a lot of negative blank space. One other thing, you probably should have used a tripod for this night shot as it's a little blurred. Good luck

The message is clear. The desat detracts however.

Good thought. Unfortunately, the flash overpowers the image making it look snapshotish.

Good pic. More effective without the desat, IMO

December

The object says December and sharpness is good. I find the background with the line running thru the object and creating a weird distortion and the harsh shadows to be severe distractions from the image. 5
