*Greeting from the Critique Club*

Hi, the title of the image "Shape of the Nation" suggest me that the stars(and the stripes) are the geometry that you paint. there are some elements in this shot that is interesting to notice. I like the composition and the point of view, good use of the DOF. With this image you play on the DOF, the composition and the patriotism (I think that if was possible to read your comment during the votation the rating was higher but can you explain me what means UVa?): It's evident the emotive content of the image but don't work for a contest where the title is geometry.

Good luck in the next contests
Best Regards
