Nice idea. :)

I lost the postcard in the background, though. If you can, try reshooting it with the postcard against the plain sky or against a darker building, but not across building boundaries.

Nice composition of a clever idea. i suppose a post card is a type of stationery. OK.

Nice idea for the challenge - would like to see more contrast.

What I like: Original idea, well implemented! Nice DOF, I'm looking forward to seeing what your Aperature and Shutter speed was.

What might improve it: Only one thing and it would have been a wider angle lense. Yeah, the one thing that haunts the digital camera.

Well done! This gets a high score from me!

Clever idea. It takes some time for it to make an impact. But the more I look at it the more I like it.

Isn't it interesting how once the plaza had space for a numer of international flags but now its dozens of flagpoles fit only American ones?

Wow, you chose some tough lighting conditions to shoot under. At first I wondered if a post card was really stationery but since you can write a message on the back it certainly is. I don't think the black and white conversion works with this photo. Maybe more contrast would help but I'm willing to bet that the post card would suffer greatly.

Yes you were.

The left tilt perspective of the building and the right-tilt perspective on the card is a bit disturbing.

Would have loved to have seen this in color. Cool how you were there and had those two images together, but IMO, the B&W turns the sky too bright to appreciate what is actually being portrayed here.

Hard to work out what one is looking at.....Yes I see that it is a postcard but it really very hard to see that.....
