Unity, a photo from Ontario, Central

Photographer's Note

Everytime I go on the ship with my Husband and we are in this area, I always photograph these flags. Actually these are in Sarnia,Ontario Canada and right across the river there is an identical set in Port Huron, Michigan, USA. This area is on the St. Clair River right at the base of Lake Huron. I get alot of pride not only as I see my own countries flag but in seeing the flag of the country I now live in. In this crazy world we live it..somehow seeing the flags together somehow gives me the feeling of peace...

Nice image, Donna. I like the formal composition. I think the extra Canadian flags in the bg make it clear what side of the border you're REALLY on, though.

I think the big border is a bit much here. But, nice image of the two flags. Good photo of the scene around too. Nice colour and detail.

In terms of composition and pov, it is very good. However, the border you have created is too wide. Perhaps, keeping the three colors for the border but thinning them out would be nicer. For some reason, I feel the whole picture has this blueish hue and the colors don't seem as vibrant. Not too sure what it is. But in anycase, this is a great shot to show peace and solidarity with both countries.
