I went out with my 6 year old daughter to shoot some stuff and the wind was really strong and cery cold. We didn\'t do much but we did spot this flag getting blasted by the wind.

I did a little saturation boost in RAW editor and a crop, but that's it. Not the most original but it\'s something to submit.

great detail. It feels like the white balance could use a bit more red though. Almost seems like there is too much blue tint.

Very brisk - the slight tears at the end of the flag attest to the fact the wind is often brisk where this flies.

It's "ok", a little ho-hummish IMO. Nothing personal, just isn't jumping out and making an artistic statement. Feels rather documentary. Good luck in the challenge.

Very nice shot. In this composition though, I think you could have gotten away with a faster shutter and captured the image without any blur. The flag going horizontal would have already conveyed the message of wind, so in this case, the blur of the flag ends actually takes away from the image just a bit.

Still a very nice shot. Score: 8.
