1st. Best moment of the bunch. the arc of the stars on the flag nicely compliments the famous St. Louis Arch. It’s bright, its good emotion, great photo. 2nd. Good overall composition, you instantly know they are in memoriam. The flags nicely contrast the black clothes, just as the texture on the umbrellas do. 3rd. We liked that the emotion comes from the people around the candidate, instead of the candidate herself. But, had there also been emotion conveyed by the candidate herself, we thought it could have placed higher.
