I realy liked this photo in the previews. However the text is out of focus and the sky is a distraction. :(

Good take on the challenge. I think that you needed a bigger depth of field so both the soldiers hat and memorial are both sharp. I think the composition might need some work, I would have included some more of the memorial and the solders face.

The idea is great. The ANZAC spirit is something that does helf define Aussie. The image seems to have competing focal points however.
