I don't understand the title, and therefore have a problem with the significance of the components of the image. Overall good lighting, although I would like to have seen less light on the top hand.

A little rough around the edged of the foot coming out. Maybe some feathering would smooth it out a bit....it is a very inventive and creative shot.

Nice idea. The ball of her right foot looks a little jagged.

Concave or convex?

Nice that you leave the details at the top of the picture to answer your own question.

Compositionally, this is a fairly strong picture. It does seem a bit static, though, because it is straight on. Sometimes, a touch of tilt (enough to look like it was done purposefully) can add interest and drama to the story.

Technically, the lighting, exposure, focus and color are superb. It might have added more action to the shot if the shutter was slowed and the person was tossing a card toward the camera. That may not have been your intent, though.

I've read your notes, and it still isn't clear to me why the player is neither male or female (though the red finger nails makes me think female).

Good shot, but your artistic vision/purpose may have been overlooked by the voters.

Nice work and best to you in future challenges.

Comment by manish:
Nice idea and fits the theme so well. I would have loved to see a more liberal crop as the black part is looking more like a border rather than what it signifies actually

Comment by bvy:
Convex with additional lighting from below?

Not sure what the story is in this picture, however, I could easy see this photograph gracing the cover of a book. You clearly have a very creative eye. Well done.
