Nice picture, but in my opinion you really need to increase the contrast.

Has the look of something pulled from an old newspaper. I am assuming that is the look you were going for, so well done.

this is a good image with really bad processing. The hazy appearance of this really detracts from the strong composition. It seems as if this is only an image of midtones which makes it very difficult for me to look at. But congratulations because this IS a duotone, although I must say that I'm not a big fan of the color, which reminds me of what the floor of the cow's stall must look like XP bumping you up a couple points though.

Interesting concept, but the lack of contrast doesn't pull me in.

Like the diagonals of the composition. Tonal range looks compressed between two middling-bright sorts of colors; increasing contrast would help some, I think.

Looks like it could do with a touch of contrast. If these aren't Dutch cows I will eat my hat.
