This is a really nice pix,the only thing bad is the musical instrument is blocking the face of the gentleman on the left. Otherwise nice pix.

Very nice photograph. Good angle. There are two points of interest. First the flag, because imaginary guiding lines point to it (e.g. the skyscrapers on the left and especially on the right). Second, the statue with the interesting gesture. Some could say that's not simple enough and you should have concentrated on one object, but I like it. With some phantasy one can interpret the flag as a symbol for capitalism.
The sun flare is a little distracting but actually I think the writing behind the statue is more distracting. It would be so nice without it, but I guess they would have thrown you in jail when you would have tried to remove it ;-)
I guess the writing was colored, so you decided to make the photo black and white. That was a good decision.

Interesting picture I like the angle, but it seems a little too light.

Whoa! I've fallen...I'm at the bottom. I'm looking up. Wait a minute. Capitolism is looking down down on me. I'm looking "Under Capitolism" Anyway an effective shot of vertigo.

A good idea, but the glare is detracting.
