The short definition of Bokeh from KenRockwell.com, which I am using for voting on this challenge: "Bokeh describes the rendition of out-of-focus points of light." Check. Is the subject enhanced by the bokeh of the background? Check. Nice. Cold.

From the Critique Club...
This is an excellent example of hidden faces, the rock definately has the appearance of a sleeping face, and the grass makes a nice frown. I find the one piece of grass over the rocks left eye (right from our perspective) very distracting, and think removing it before the shot would have helped you to recieve a higher score. The crop is good, and the noise isn't too noticeable, but a little noise reduction would definately help. Also, maybe a slight burning in of the sky would help to give the overall image more of a "cold" and "tired" feeling to it.
Overall a good image. Keep up the good work, i hope this critique has helped a little!

a different title would have made a lot more difference the way people will see this photo.

Nice observation and well done. I might have tried coloring or tinting the background a little.

Nice creative "face", but it seems a bit noisy to me. I might have tried to clip away the vertical bit of straw right in from of the eye on the right side. (6)
