Superman is a bit under exposed, and looks oversharpened.

Not sure how to explain this. The colors look washed out. They all kind of blend together and offer no vivid creation of the picture. 3

Interesting perspective however the image appears to be oversharpened. The sign of this are the halos along all the edges.

Man of steel? Cute idea, but it still didn't work for me, I think partially because of the lack of contrast and the blown out flag.

appears really sharp (or lo-res). pretty interesting image, though.

I assume you are being sarcastic. Good choice of viewpoint.

Well this WOULD have been a super pic, if only the lighting was a bit different.... the colors on the statue are just plain drab to me, still a nice pic, but could have been better.

looks like too much sharpening, especially near the flag, or you just have a lot of CA

neat idea
