I took this and I think it's a pretty good headline shot, but it's noisy as anything and there's something about it that niggles me - it's missing something. Hints and tips much appreciated.

I'm tempted to PS the shadows off the wall/flag, but I'm not really sure that that's the problem. Maybe it's more the lack of a definite subject?

Moz like the image but like you would prefer a focus. I find myself straining to see the band

I would try it with the top cropped off, so the focus is on the large yellow circle on the wall.

Thanks Suzanne, I cropped it to more flag proportions and darkened the ground a little to get this. Look better?
