Photographer’s Note
We were at the Chiang Kai-shek memorial on Taiwan's Double Ten which commemorates the overthrow of the Manchu Qing Dynasty... China's last, on October 10th, 1911.
Bunch of uniformed school kids eating lunch and we saw a motorcade of black sedans... looked like the president!

Dan, this is a very good shot. The contrast between the white and the colored flag is very well-seen. The people can be sharper though.
This is also a symbolic shot. Under the shadow of their flag?

Very nice. I like the big contrast between the colourful flags and the rest of the similarly coloured other parts of the photo. Can't help thinking it would be an even better shot if you took it from a crouching down position, looking up, and got the full height of the foreground flag in.

i think the cropped flag at top is perfect... let the imagination finish the borders. color contrast is spectacular. wouldnt change a thing.
