Took this one night at the local cementary. Got a long exposure and walked in and out of picture to give it a ghostly look. I know I did this for seperation but it really needed to be in this challenge.

just don't feel that the the ghosting is really working here - maybe in part because it is not very sharp. Without wishing to offend, the patriotic call implicit in the flag may switch off some non-US voters - very slightly cheapens the image for me as it feels as though the symbol is being used to evoke an emotive response that the picture would not otherwise demand.
I am making two passes on this Challenge. I will vote on your photo then return later(before voting is over) to comment on what I like and dislike about your shot. You can take the comments however you wish and I will try not to be mean. Just don't take it the wrong way.

Looks like there is too much noise in the person. Could just be the snow though. Looks a little dark.
