I get it. I like it. you gotta realize who's going to be looking at this- most (but not all) are under 30 and have never seen Miracle on 34th street. those older than that probably looked at it and tought "ok" and then moved on. don't worry- keep shooting.

The "moneyshot" so to speak from the 1947 Christmas Movie 'Miracle on 34th Street' was at the end, the little girl didnt believe in Santa, she asked the Santa of the movie for a specific house for her and her mother, and said something along the lines of ..."I would really like this house for me and mother, if you really are Santa Clause, you can get it, if not, I understand, you are just a really nice old man..." She is riding in the car with her mother and Mr. Gailey, sees the house, jumps out of the car and runs into the house, and there, by the door is Santa Clause's cane...

Ahhh, gotcha. Given the context, it's a nice shot; but it really is a context-required sort of shot. Given that, JB's right that most are likely to just pass on by. No reason to give up, just not a shot that's likely to get much comment.

Miracle on 34th Street is a classic holiday flick, I guess I just figured more people would get the reference...

The explanation of that movie helps. But it's still hardly miraculous. The shot is nice though.
