Controversial! I won't get political about it but I will say kudos for the courage in presenting an image that's going to garner a LOT of angry reaction. Very grainy, I'm assuming that's intentional? In terms of composition I really like the sweep of the barbed wire but find the positioning of the bullets a bit too centred.

It's good to see a photo that has something to say about the broader world. While it might not go so well here due to the content, keep at it because to me one of the real purposes of photographs (like music) is to make a statement and make people think (regardless of which side of the statement anybody is on).

INteresting... Im sure you'll get a lot of comments with this one. The composition is good although the bullets could use a little work with their spacing and the stripes/stars accross the top are a little off kilter. Also image grain is a problem here. I personally could have voted this at least one or two points higher had it just been titled "American Pride". I think the voters would have caught the sarcasm. Instead, by titling it "American Idiot(pride)" this only serves to insult the viewer's intelligence.

That being said, still a good composition, although lacking technical precision. BTW, this was the first picture on my voting page, what a fun one to start with.
