I'd say this has a reasonable chance. The sky is a tad light and the legs of the soldier on the right are a little distracting. Overall it is pretty good and has enc value in my opinion. Noodle snacks (talk) 23:02, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Is it just me being picky or is there also a slight DOF issue with the right (our left) wing tip? Seems blurred to me... That said though, this is a relatively rare occurance, and therefore the EV of this outweighs the minor issues such as torso-less soldier, and slight blurr.
