Fun shot! I'm more seeing this as photojournalism than postcard. Color is good, but the white is a bit strong. (Ouch on the background) 7 Rob the Swash

Interesting postcard shot, very original. The red and white arm is a little out of place though.

Not sure how this sells your town very well. The main subject is facing the wrong way. A bit washed out, too. Good try!

Looks more like a snapshot than a postcard, to me, and the composition's busy and uncentered. There's no 'point' going on, no reason, or purpose, or focal point.

Funny and interesting, but not a polished enough composition for a real postcard, IMO.
