The sense of "moment" is present in this image and the obvious character being captured carries some visual impact. Technically speaking, rating is a problem because while the author's intent is clear, the lack of facial detail and rather excessive background is a negative. From an artistic standpoint, it lacks impact. A worthy entry into the challenge just lacking that something special to make it stand out.
