Jason I really like the viewpoint you have chosen, the subject and the perspective on this shot. To be truthful, it inspired me to take a simalar shot myself. Thanks for the inspiration!
I generally agree with the above comment. My proposed fix, however, would be to crop off some of the flagpole on the left side or maybe the bottom. I think that the extreme perspective should be kept; this is what makes this an interesting high impact photo of a flag.
Jason - I almost really like this. The exposure is just about perfeft. But to my eye, the distortion of the flagpole is just a little too extreme. Maybe if the flag was a bit bigger, the picture wouldn't seem so off to me, but as it is, the perspective is a bit unsettling.
