A slightly sharper image would realy show up the lines in the crop

grainy, out of focus, and flat. This could be a very dramatic image if taken maybe later in the day, using a tripod.

It is a good idea but the overal technical quality of this image is very poor. It is not in clear focus and the color and sky bland. Trying something with a little differente perspective that includes something for foreground interest would help to.

Not very clear but I like the warm colors, wish you had set your aperture a bit higher to get the depth of field

This is a great idea. The lines of the fields are good subjects, as you've noticed! The way they lead to the house or barn is nice, too. I laso like how the house is just below half way down. This is really out of focus, though, and a bit overexposed. You'll probably want to check that next time.

This one is completely out of focus and I am not convinced that it was deliberate. Sorry (2)

I'm sorrry. I've never given a 1 or a 2 before, but I'm giving you a 2. Poor exposure and even worse focus.

too 'soft'

the photo is really unclear, like it was sized up from the original file and then cropped. I would have liked to see a better quality file.

Very sorry, but this has very little going for it. It's out of focus, lacks a focal point of interest and is way over exposed. If you have the ability with your camera I would lower your f-stop to about f6-8, focus around 2/3 of the way across the field and try getting low down to include some corn in the foreground or something to alter the bland point of view. This would give the viewer the sense of being involved in the photo rather than simply presented with a scene that one is familiar with from a car window.

Hope this helps.

Challenge: 10
Technical: 2 A tripod I think would have slowed the the slight motion.
Compostion: 2 I would have tried to get the horizontal line by the trees perpendicular to the lines created from the crop fields. I have also tried to keep the closer barn within the frame of the picture. The idea is to keep the eye within the picture and not let it stray around.
Appeal: 3 I lost the wow factor due to the blurness.
Overall: 4

This is way out of focus and the sky is completely blown. No real subject.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Ok, the lines are in the field yes? If thats the case then it's very blurry. The trees and the sky and buildings don't add anything to the shot and could have been cropped out. Maybe a slight horizontal rotation to the left to straighten the shot. It's main downfall however is the focus. I gave it a 2.

Your Photo is out of focus ans somewhat washed out. I would have tried getting closer to the structure, it looks interesting.

Nothing is in focus here. This could have been a lot better.
