This might be more meaningful if I could make out what the object(s) silhouetted against the flag are. The restrained saturation works well here.

Very interesting that you would put these two together.

Nice! In God We Trust.

Ummmm.... yes, there IS a silhouette. But it is small, centered, and totally overpowered by the flag. Not exactly ideal for this challenge :-( 5

nice shot, i was going to do something like this, but good thing i didn't cuz yours would have been so much better. good job!

I can't tell what the shape of the objects behind the flag are. Area to the right of the one shape is too blownout adn is distracting.

If you'd have placed the sun directly behind the buildings, would their outline have been sharper? That certainly would have avoided the unhelpful white blob. The black silhouette on the left doesn't help that much, either. But, beyond these quibbles, this is a potentially very good image. I like the attempt at combining motifs rather than just shoot a straightforward subject. 7

Is that the Salt Lake Temple? An absolutely beautiful photo. I hope it does well

Looks like the mormon tabernacle in SLC. If so, somewhat misleading title :) Nice shot, otherwise.

I love how this photo is different from all the other typical silhouettes, I really hope it does well!
