In my opinion (like I really know anything anyway) the lighting is a tad too yellow and warm making it look at little snap-shot-ish. I really like the idea though- different from the rest and I compliment you on that.

The sun spot in the center of the tree got you an extra point here... it gives a focal point, and is not overdone.

I try to guess before looking at the titles what the D and L are. I had guessed 'Duck and Launch', 'Dive and Lowered'. So I think you have a lot of D and L's in this pic. Great photo for the challenge.
You have captured a great moment. I personally like the DOF. Focus is perfect right where it is. In all the right spots. We don't need to see her feet in focus, so having just her 'diving half' in focus works great for me.
Color is also good. I like the way there is not much color in the shot, but her red bathing suit tie really stands out. gives us that tiny something to add extra interest to the shot.
I like the positioning of the subject even though she is directly in the center of the shot, she is kind of coming out of the left side of the photo, making it a left to right photo and we aren't looking directly at the center.
Nothing distracting about the background.
Lighting is excellent.
Overall a great shot, nothing that I can see that I'd really change here. Very pleasing image.
