Despite the xenophobic title......I give this a 8(my best so far in the challenge). I hope that people realize that the reason everything in America is made in China is because of corporate greed and insatiable consumer demand.

*after voting was done, this picture ended as my #3 pick.

I love the pic. Some super patriot types will be offended the flag is backward perhaps. Whatever for me, but for some little edge perhaps a horizontal flip would have tweaked a little. 9 for me... great bike.

The title makes an ironic statement. I really like this entry. Nice and bold, with just the right sharpness and DOF.

Really like this, it is a very clean image. There is a good level of detail the chrome is nice and shiny and I like the flag in the background. One of my favorites of the challenge.

Beautiful clear crisp image with good colours, however, shame the flag is reversed.

I love the colour and composition. Nice shine in the handle bars. Having the American flag in the background looks great.
