Greetings from the critique club!

Hi GeneralE!!

Well, my first impression of the photo was wow, what a great sky! I love the wky you have captured here, it's absolutely stunning and beautiful. I like the idea of the wind blowing the flags. We have a few basic things you could have done to make the picture "better". First of all a tighter crop to get the top of the other car out of the shot. Next, personally, I would have chopped out the building on the left as well, leaving you with mostly sky and the flags. That would have had a much more dramatic feel to it. (I like drama.) I can appreciate your take on the challenge, and I think this felt nicely.
Well done, good luck in the future :D

the composition of the orange flowers arranged like leading lines brings my eye to .. the grassy center of the photograph. makes me wonder where to land my eye. great colors, focus, etc.. but that big empty space in the center bothers me.

Good capture of a usually non-compelling subject. I'm not sure about the car in the background.

That's a great capture but the background really spoils it. Love the blur on the wingtips, hate the car.

I dont know what you were trying to achieve with this photo but for a second i thought the car was about to hit the bird, theres definatly the element of movement and tension, as for Fauna i think (although i doubt you were thinking this when you took the pictue) that this is a modern interpretation of the dangers man has inflicted on nature.

Like this, good urban shot! Excellent motion, would have been better with the birds face more in focus.
