A really neat idea. Marvelously absurd... a human having to stand there over crops to scare the crows. It seems the emphasis is on the leather more than on the whole concept...the human almost takes up too much space. I would think that was one lonely scarecrow, but I'm not feeling that here. I wish I could offer something more concrete...maybe a wider image...more of the crops. Or something to show the vastness of the space. More DOF? Extremely creative picture!

Your lighting is nice, and the composition really works.
