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 location but let down badly by the PP. Far too flat looking

To me there is not enough going on in this picture, the composition is very bland but it is a clean well lit shot

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.

a little less zoom and it would be better! I like it though!

Well look at it this way: if it does poorly, you can blame it on the title screwup. :)
