Sunflowers growing in a ditch, still alive in Early November due to unusually warm weather. nice old sky blue Falcon and grass field turning as well as the barb wire fence ...just liked all the colors.

Compostion: 5 I just dont understand the use of the car. Concentrating more on a single sunflower of a small group would have made it more appealing
Technical: 5 Seems just a little flat or washed out in color. Rethinking exposure and histogram can fix this
Appeal: 3 I just dont understand the use of the car
Challenge: 5 I would have done a macro on the sun flower
Overall: 4
A good idea. Flowers can make a fine subject for photos. In this shot though, I find most of my attention is drawn to the car, which doesn't seem like was your intent. This seems like a case where simplifying the presentation could strengthen the image. Color wise, it seems a little on the flat side. Maybe just some simple adjusting in post processing, some levels and color adjustments could make a big difference.
I can't help but be a bit harsh on your picture. I give you credit for getting out and shooting and please continue to do so. Critisism: The old car and fence post overpower the sunflowers and they become lost in what may have been a much better landscape. suggestion: Get in closer to your main subject, use a large aperature if possible as this will blurr out unwanted background. Like I said, keep shooting and enjoy photography.
