Incredible detail that you draw with these "stacks".
My only criticism here is that the stocks would maybe look better if they were all much the same tone where they enter the frame at the base.
I'm going to have to try this technique sometime...........when I find a little time

You're becoming quite the master of this technique Alan - another wonderully detailed image

Another stunningly detailed shot Alan
I think I'd try it with a landscape layout, keeping the 'stalks' over to the right and giving some room for that OoF dark line in the BG to continue diagonally downwards - it's quite a strong element in the image, and looks a bit truncated as it is.
Hark at me getting all artified - I'll be photographing upside-down grafitti and nudes wrapped in cling film next
