Iwo Jima flag Raising Parris Island SC Memorial

Good color, but we are looking at this from behind. Perhaps it wasn't possible to get that view that day. Also, the corps in the background is a bit distracting & draws my eye away from the subject. I would have left out as much of the foreground as possible, and tried either early in the a.m. or late p.m. for softer light.

The crop is good, but cuts off the point of the archway; otherwise I like it.

A Briefcase of Gratitude

The light here, and depth of field is pretty good. It is a shame, though, that we can't see the face of the statue. Just IMO.

I like the soft tones in this shot, but the lamps & lamp reflections draw my eye away from the statue, and it is too dark in places & the details are lost. Perhaps an early morning shot would have provided better light in general, without being too bright, so as to lose the mood. Also, if a different angle could have been used, as all the windows and power lines are distracting. Good effort, though.

Thank you so much for the critique. Had I allowed myself more time, i.e., been able to do a re-take after I saw the image in full size, I feel I could have produced a better photo. As it was, I had to work with what I had; however, my sister have discussed a re-do, as we both really like the pose and the mood, but want to make the suggested changes. This has really been a rewarding first experience with dpchallenge, and I look forward to more in the future. Thanks!
