This was taken shortly before sunset in a local corn field; I wanted to capture the fall beauty as well as the subject, corn. This is my first entry and first real attempt at taking a purposeful photograph.

I can hear the evil does not meet crowd coming. I am not going to say that. I would rather focus on the shot and talk about that. In the upper right the tree branch or whatever that is immediately takes my attention away from your shot. Same thing with the two stalk tops that break in from the right side. If you were looking to shoot through the corn into the sunset I would say get the camera up higher and shoot truly through the corn into the sunset rather than up into both.
This is an just an ok shot for me. It's a little underexposed for my taste and I would have cropped the two little images at the top righthand corner out.
Lacks composition IMO. It's just kind of there. Perhaps shooting the stalks at an angle, and eliminating the stray stalks along frame right. Focus seems a little soft too, although that could be the lens.
