It's small, but I still find the border distracting.

I get the feeling that this is just a snapshot that happened to fit the challenge. The fact that the Waldo is walking away is pretty much what gives that impression.
Although you did have great light on the birds.

Don't know if you just saw this guy like this, but it looks posed, which I think doesn't help.

In many ways this is quite powerful. It's marred by oversharpening, and I wish the DOF was dropping the background out more; this is extremely busy.

Why vertical crop? This image has such great midrange tones and focus a solid subject that could have been staged, but comes off as emotionally open (candid), but his body floats in mid-air into the picture. The stance of crouching like that would be more powerful with the bent knees to witness to his anguish. Some areas of highlight/blowout on the underarm area and one hot area in the water just above his head, the arms are not distracting, but the water dot is. Seems to need just a very tiny rotation clockwise, but otherwise a good shot. Leaving at 7.

Good luck in the future

I kind of like the austerity of this. could do with a tad less foreground.
