I love the cool tranquil feel of this image. The movement of the flags tells us that there is a breeze, and the sun makes some great shadows. I love the colour palette, energy and movement. Congratulations on your first place

This is a most effective image, I love that the fore ground and most of the image is dark with just a small are in bright sunshine with the coloured flags most effectively reflected in the puddle. in a lot of ways it is a dark image but the brightness of the bunting lifts it giving hope, perfectly titled. Congratulations on your top ten placing, thanks you for entering.

A fabulous street scene, very strong with loads of energy and movement. The way the sun is shining though the flags making them semi transparent giving an almost ethereal feel. As you come down through the image the flags become more opaque giving a strong band of colour, I love the composition and feel of this image. Congratulations on your top ten place and thank you for entering.

A lovely colourful celebratory image that has have been very well composed, it is very well balanced with the more weighty elements at the bottom of the image balancing out the business of the flags which stops it from looking 'bitty' . Colourful and joyful it made me smile. Congratulations on your top ten placing, thank you for entering.

What a great image, well composed and set up. Henry looks very fed up with Jubilee celebrations (as many of us were). It is a humorous image but also a technically excellent. i love that Henry is the main focus and the flags a softer focus, but they really make the image. Congratulations on your top ten place and thank you for entering.

A great capture, lots of energy and movement. I like that you have kept the composition simple and just focused on the flags, it is very effective. I had huge numbers of Union Jack images to choose from, but this was one that caught my eye. Congratulations on your top ten placing, thanks you for entering.

This is a very pleasing image, a stunning landscape enhanced by the lamp post and the line of bunting at the bottom their of the picture. I like the cool colour palette and that you have resisted over editing it. Very well composed, a nice image. Congratulations on your top ten placing, thank you for entering.

I really like this, it is very well composed with good cropping. pin sharp focusing highlights all the details. So many great details as well; the rusty hinges, rotting wood panels and most of all the distressed painted bunting. Congratulations on your top ten place and many thanks for entering.

I love the POV of this image, a great city skyline through the bunting. The muted colour palette is very effective; with the bunting very complimentary to the buildings. It is dramatic and effective. Congratulations on your top ten place and many thanks for entering.

Almost everything about this perfect, the texture and colour of the wall, the ancient window, and toneing bunting. It is subtle, simple and effective. The overall effect is enhanced by the contrast of the flowers and foliage at the bottom of the image. Congratulations on your top ten place and many thanks for entering.
