Looks really good. As you say, it needs a bit of light adjustment. Very close.
As a side, when I lived in Pipe Creek Texas, (just north of San Antonio about 40 miles) Our house was on land that butted up against the spread of a man named Block. As it turned out he was the brother of Harlon Block, one of the flag raisers on Iwo. As I understand it, Harlon is the man on the far right steadying the pole in the ground. Harlon died in combat a few days later. The story his brother told me was that Harlon was, at first, mis-identified as another soldier and that it was their mother who forced the issue and got Harlon the recognition he deserved. The Wikipedia account corresponds exactly to the story as related to me by Harlons brother.
Block's mother, Belle Block, refused to accept the official identification, noting that she had "changed so many diapers on that boy's butt, I know it's my boy."
I guess you really can't fool your mom.
