I like the concept of the pic, especially knowing where it was taken. I would like to see the reverse angle, ie the flag at the top of the image rather than "upside down". I like how the water breaks up the edges of the flag, giving it a very war torn look. I like it, very dramatic-thanks for sharing!

Unusual capture of a flag, it's usually higher... I don't like it that is near the Vietnam memorial.

interesting shot.. i think i would like it a bit brighter but nevertheless the reflection is great. I agree also that I would like to see it flipped vertically.

I have to disagree with the other comments. Flipping it vertically makes it look like it's reflected on a wet ceiling! Reflections ARE upside down in the real world, and the dark tiles on the bottom of the pool make the dark reflection totally realistic. As a Vietnam vet, I think this is a poignant photo; thanks for sharing it.

Ownership of land is, at best, a useful human fiction.

Interesting take on that. You have achieved something by causing different opinions to the same photo. The fact that people express different views means you created something that got their attention - good for you!
