I figured this was yours when thumbing through the entries (I didn't vote in this challenge). I like the tones a lot. The only distracting element are the bushes in the very front that are fuzzy. Fits the user name very, very well.
great duotone. I usually like my blacks black and whites white but I think the style you've gone for here. the vegetation is interesting too. I'm not sure about the crop - showing more of the surroundings may have given a more deserted feel.
This does have a certain sense of age - I'm guessing that's the point of the toning here. In terms of visual interest however I'm unsure about the point of view you've chosen - perhaps to allow a greater sense of shape you might have found more of an angle on it. I think I would still find it a fairly old and hackneyed subject (just like my own 'version' of it!), but you could have done more to encourage your score.
