The bird and flag are iconic. The border is a little overwhelming; I might have used a thin blue border and then white instead of bright red.

It's a great pose, very majestic looking. Not very fond of the border. A bit blown out on the head as well.

Perfect for election day spirit! If the blue went to the edge of the frame on the bottom, I would like that, too.

When Sam was elected President of the United States, he broke the most amazing barrier that had ever existed.

That people only voted for him because he was an Eagle never entered his thoughts, never made a difference.

However, when he implemented his Free Salmon for Every Eagle initiative, the economy went into the toilet, the environment was devastated, and Sam was eventually impeached.

Sam lived out his remaining years shamed and disgraced under a government led by the great President Jack Russell Terrier.

Good focus and texturs, but the colors just don't work for me. The red in the flag looks almost pink, and the bird looks like it has been desaturated. Also, while I guess it doesn't "technically" affect the picture, the border really detracts because it is so bold.

A patriotic, noble view. Nice flag behind. Well seen.

I love the concept, something is missing for me. Not sure but great effort.

Oh man this could've been a winner if not for the blown out highlights. I am not a big fan of that red border also. Good shot nonetheless.
