Having difficulty finding the face, but I like the grain and texture. Nicely done. Is the knot an ear?

Cool photo, although the face does not jump out at me.

too busy and confusing for me. there seem to be lines leading into the middle of the photo which counteract the movement of the stalks of wheat

*laugh* As a standalone image, this is very well done. I love your zoom-effect, and if it was a open free study I'd give you an 8 for the warm feeling I get from this image. BUT, this is a Wind challenge, and all I see is a lens effect, It looks like you're zooming to achive the effect of win. And you don't succed :-\

I'm giving you a 5, which is 1 more then I wanna give, but it's because I actually like the image. But being off-topic should be penalized even more. GL though!

Great colour, strong composition. It lacks something for me - just that edge of real shape from light perhaps. Nice work.
