You did a beautiful job with your focusing and accomplishing what you wanted to do with the flags. I love city pictures like this as I do not get much of a chance to enjoy the shapes and the lines they offer. A gorgeous citiy scene with the bridges over the water. Love the look my dear friend. #9085149Patrick Rouzes December 07, 2010

It appears to be in focus from foreground to background, Maria. Great job showing action in a still, like photographing the wind. A beautiful look at the windy city. #9085446Douglas Pignet December 07, 2010
