| This image would do well anywhere but DPC, it is well composed and has a lot of interest when you take the time to really see it. Nicely done, I gave it a seven but have to admit I might have gone higher if I took the time to really observe all this image has to offer. |

| I think this could win a photo journalistic award...fantastic image. The voters on this site like "BIG BRIGHT COLORS" some of the best photos in this challenge ended up having a 5.5 - 6 range. Pity...well done done image though. |

| Cool shot, this has a lot of great elements to it: the cohesiveness of the group, the reflection, the giant flag. |

| Looking at this shot, makes me question why the one guy is standing up in the top left. Interesting shot. |

| poignant and dramatic, well balanced and composed... a really good job... I expect you to score at least top 100 in this monster challenge, and maybe even much much higher. |

| I guess lesson 1 is to line up with some precision. It's a decently composed photo of a subject i find hard to be interested in. I do like the reflections a lot and am giving you quite a few points for them. |

| I feel incredibly guilty for saying this--but I think it would be much stronger with the flag cropped out. Because of the strange white reflection in the middle, it doesn't add that much. And the people & reflection are wonderful, it would be nice to see them larger. |

| This is interesting. Not just a standard class photograph ... it has a strange ecclesiastical feel to it. The fact that the massed body of the students forms an echo of their own flag (twice!) is another elevating element. 7. |

| I love the American flag in this image, you've probably got the image with the most people in it in this challenge, to bad there isn't am award for that, especially if you can double the amount due to the reflection. |

| So they gathered, the men that had fought for their country so many times. The men that gave of themselves, that sacrificed so much. They gathered, and they paid tribute, and then their heart-rending rendition of "Over the Rainbow" went off without a hitch, and hearts the world over were warmed. |
