I like the comp in this. Where is it?

Nicely done! Very patriotic!

I like the composition as well. The folds and shadows in the red stripes of the flag are great! I am missing the same in the white stripes, but probably is just me.

Not for me - I am a Canandian. Just documenting the scene...

Nope - not just you. There wasn't much detail in the whites to start with, and the posterization I did to bring out the textures eliminated whatever detail in the white that there was.

What I was most happy with on this one was the composition.

Here is an "uncomposed" version.

As I looked at the uncomposed image I scrolled down the page and liked what I saw. The farther down I looked it wasn't quite the same. But what I did like was a crop off the bottom right where the next rooftop is halfway down leaving just the top part of the building with the flag.

I like the "uncomposed" version too!

Pffffft. I'm not a journalist - I'm an artist. The uncomposed version is a snapshot. Tastes vary.
