This image has caused me to stop and pay attention. That means it is in my 7-10 voting band. (Voted earlier)
Additionally, it is highly interesting/eclectic meaning it keeps me here long enough to offer a longer comment and a vote of 8 or more.
This is one of my 10s - I like it very much. Furthermore I think it enriches the DPC collective portfolio. Put simply, I wish we saw more stuff like this. Let me tell you why it pushes all the right buttons for me:
1. Stunning composition - reminds me of an image I saw a long time ago on 1x.com - I may try to find it for you later.
2. Great story and mystery here - the figure is an excellent inclusion. What's his story?
3. Fabulous exposure, I particularly like how the grass is put into silhouette.
4. Wonderful aspect ratio and framing.
Overall, a very enjoyable picture.
