All fantasies begin in your imagination. Watching this kid climbing this rock wall and had the determination as if he was climbing K2. I cropped and adjusted levels, brightness contrast and a little saturation. Saved for web and here it is. I hope the theme police get this

By looking at your portfolio, I definitely see that you know how to take a photo. I don't agree with some of these comments, that you just "stuck" a photo in here and gave it a name. That's not fair to you. I see where you were coming from. Don't let your low score get you down. Mine didn't do too hot either. :)
I love the fact that you caught him reaching for his next grasp. I agree with stdavidson, that setting a black point and then adjusting levels would have made a difference. Unfortunately, I think it was the photos content that got you the low score.
Good capture and decent quality photograph. Well composed with eye appealing colors.
Some reviewers will view this as a 'kid' picture more than a fantasy world and score it lower.
The image is a little on the low contrast side. It does not appear to have a proper black point set. Adjusting that will give the image more 'pop'. The clouds on the lower left are overexposed.
