I think you should have cropped this one so that it was only the top half. It would be much more effective that way, because there is too much going on like this.

Maybe use the longer plants to hide the phone poloes and lines in the background of the upper right corner. Also isolate one plant more and use the rest for background coloring. That would show more detail and not just a lot of yellow color.

Rape seed/Canola.... I like the powerline in the background! Reminds me of southern Alberta!

It looks like oilseed rape. It is very strongly inclined to seed itself anywhere it likes, so that is a kind of strength.

That's gotta hurt if you have allergies. Nice photo. You've shown the vastness of the field well.

Doesn't seem saturated enough.

As I sneeze my way through another month, I can relate to this image and the title. It's strong, okay! I even like the power lines in the distance. It's the something extra needed to break up the yellow patterns. Good one.

Doesn't say strength. Note: if you have to use the title to make it meet the challenge, the photo won't score well.

I think you could have improved this slightly by having the tall plant slightly further into the frame.
