 "The Adventures of Gnome"

Gnome is lost. He suspects he is in Iowa, but Iowa isn't filled with loons. It's perplexing...

You at least should have gotten the gnome sharp.

The light falling between the corn stalks is interesting along with the pattern in the parched ground. Impact could possibly be improved by increasing the contrast between the shafts of light and the dirt.

The gnome is a cute touch but I don't think was necessary. Did you try this vertically and/or without the gnome?

Not very clear (the subject seems to be the gnome), the ground is interesting looking though.

A little blurry. What if you would take a picture from a lower lever near the ground shoot straight or upward. That may have produce a different prospective.4
