This certainly has it's place in the family album. Nice shot of Grandpa. As a portrait in the type being looked for in the challenge, its' not quite there technically. Mostly the lighting is too harsh IMO, and overall it's a little soft (or perhaps it appears soft around his eyes because of the way they seem to be squinting). All JMO of course. :D Good luck in the challenge.

you shold look at this tutorial. Your photo file size is 21 kb, and you could have used up to 200 kb. This wold have smooth out the details in your image and will help your scores.

Beautiful photo with nasty compression artifacts. You realize your file is only 24KB? Remember, the maximum is 200KB, so compressing down to 24KB is unnecessary and just damages the image.

I like the colors, but there seem to be a lot of artifacts making patterns that really detract from the image.
